Der River Welland (von englisch river „Fluss“) ist ein 105 km langer Fluss in Ostengland. Er entspringt bei Market Harborough in Northamptonshire und fließt von dort in nordöstlicher Richtung durch Stamford, und Spalding in die Nordsee, in die er unterhalb von Fosdyke in der Bucht The Wash mündet. Er ist eine der größeren Wasserstraßen im Bereich des als South Holland bezeichneten Teils der Fens in Lincolnshire. Unterhalb von Spalding ist er gezeitenabhängig. rdf:langString

Welland – rzeka we wschodniej Anglii. Uchodzi do estuarium The Wash na Morzu Północnym. Rzeka ma 56 km długości. Ma źródła w Leicestershire, skąd płynie na wschód przez Ketton, Stamford, , Crowland, Cowbit oraz Spalding. Jedna z głównych dróg wodnych depresji The Fens. rdf:langString

River Welland är ett vattendrag i Storbritannien. Det ligger i riksdelen England, i den sydöstra delen av landet, 150 km norr om huvudstaden London. Klimatet i området är tempererat.

The River Welland is a lowland river in the east of England, some 65 miles (105 km) long. It drains part of the Midlands eastwards to The Wash. The river rises in the Hothorpe Hills, at Sibbertoft in Northamptonshire, then flows generally northeast to Market Harborough, Stamford and Spalding, to reach The Wash near Fosdyke. It is a major waterway across the part of the Fens called South Holland, and is one of the Fenland rivers which were laid out with washlands. There are two channels between widely spaced embankments with the intention that flood waters would have space in which to spread while the tide in the estuary prevented free egress. However, after the floods of 1947, new works such as the Coronation Channel were constructed to control flooding in Spalding and the washes are no lo rdf:langString

rdf:langString The River Welland is a lowland river in the east of England, some 65 miles (105 km) long. It drains part of the Midlands eastwards to The Wash. The river rises in the Hothorpe Hills, at Sibbertoft in Northamptonshire, then flows generally northeast to Market Harborough, Stamford and Spalding, to reach The Wash near Fosdyke. It is a major waterway across the part of the Fens called South Holland, and is one of the Fenland rivers which were laid out with washlands. There are two channels between widely spaced embankments with the intention that flood waters would have space in which to spread while the tide in the estuary prevented free egress. However, after the floods of 1947, new works such as the Coronation Channel were constructed to control flooding in Spalding and the washes are no longer used solely as pasture, but may be used for arable farming. Significant improvements were made to the river in the 1660s, when a new cut with 10 locks was constructed between Stamford and Market Deeping, and two locks were built on the river section below Market Deeping. The canal section was known as the Stamford Canal, and was the longest canal with locks in Britain when it was built. The river provided the final outlet to the sea for land drainage schemes implemented in the seventeenth century, although they were not completely successful until a steam-powered pumping station was built at Pode Hole in 1827. Navigation on the upper river, including the Stamford Canal, had ceased by 1863, but Spalding remained an active port until the end of the Second World War. The Environment Agency is the navigation authority for the river, which is navigable as far upstream as Crowland, and with very shallow draught to West Deeping Bridge, where further progress is hindered by the derelict lock around the weir. The traditional head of navigation was Wharf Road in Stamford. The management of the lower river has been intimately tied up with the drainage of Deeping Fen, and the river remains important to the Welland and Deepings Internal Drainage Board, for whom it provides the final conduit to the sea for pumped water. Wildlife in the river varies along its length, the faster headwaters being a habitat for trout and the slower lower reaches for perch. The estuary conditions and flat landscapes beyond Fosdyke favour wading birds and migratory species.
