水文

[编辑]

蓋德河發源自位在白金漢郡狄樂能(Dagnall)奇爾特恩丘陵白堊岩中,流經位在小城赫默爾亨普斯特德的村莊金斯蘭利英语Kings Langley,然後沿著沃特福德的西邊通過卡里奧伯里公園英语Cassiobury Park。在流經克諾斯萊後,於里克曼斯沃斯匯入科恩河英语River Colne, Hertfordshire。它的主要支流是布魯伯河,其於赫默爾亨普斯特德南方的吐瓦特斯(Two Waters)匯入蓋德河。

瓦特安德(Water End)、卡里奧伯里公園英语Cassiobury Park、吐瓦特斯(Two Waters)等地曾經在該河上建造水車,以獲取動力。克諾斯萊(Croxely)和阿普斯利(Apsley)的約翰·狄金森造紙廠也依賴此河獲取動力來源。該河也提供了卡里奧伯里公園英语Cassiobury Park、瓦特安德(Water End)、水上花園、吐瓦特斯(Two Waters)地區西洋菜耕種的水源,直到1947年這條河流改道流往赫默爾亨普斯特德這個新興市鎮

蓋德河在赫默爾亨普斯特德南方處,與大聯盟運河(Grand Union Canal)並行,某些河段甚至直接匯入運河,成為運河的一部份。

流域地理

[编辑]

赫默爾亨普斯特德的蓋德橋公園發現了古羅馬別墅的遺跡。

三河區的命名是因為這裡有三條河流經,而蓋德河是其中一條。

蓋德河流域具有高度生物多樣性,有多種鴨類及昆蟲。
