About
The Tame Anker Mease catchment extends from the headwaters of the River Tame in the Black Country to its confluence with the River Trent at Alrewas and then downstream on the River Trent to its confluence with the River Dove at Newton Solney. This diverse catchment incorporates the heavily urbanized areas of Birmingham, Walsall, Sandwell, and the eastern parts of Wolverhampton and Dudley, with the associated Birmingham Canal Navigations, the most extensive canal network of any urban area in the UK. More rural and intensive agricultural areas are found in the eastern and southerly parts of the catchment.
