Alre Valley
The River Alre (also, occasionally, Arle[1]) is a river in the English county of Hampshire. It is a tributary of the River Itchen, which it joins just downstream of the town of New Alresford. Previously the Itchen itself was referred to as the River Alre.[2][3] Daniel Defoe mentions the river in his book A tour thro' the whole island of Great Britain.[4]
The river is a classic English chalk stream with shallow gravel bottom and fast flowing waters fed year round by chalk springs.
