No info

[edit]

I can find very little about this river, on-line; no source (it may not even be in Herefordshire), no other tributaries, and no confluence. It's also not listed at Rivers of the United Kingdom. Andy Mabbett 11:38, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It definitely rises in Wales - I think [1] is the exact source. Morwen - Talk 11:50, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wales?

[edit]

It is unfortunate that, in differentiating it from 'River Arrow, Worcestershire', this River Arrow should be labelled as 'River Arrow, Wales' since the greater part of its length is in fact in England. Though it rises in Powys (Wales), it continues through Herefordshire (England) and might better appear as 'River Arrow, Powys/Herefordshire' or perhaps as 'River Arrow, Kington' - the latter suggestion as this is the largest town through which it flows. Any thoughts? Geopersona (talk) 19:18, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see that for the River Avon we use River Avon (Hampshire) for the one that rises in Wiltshire and River Avon (Warwickshire) for the one that rises in Northamptonshire. That seems a bit odd but it does tie in with having the title co-ordinates as the mouth of the river as suggested in WP:LINEAR. If we follow the same approach, this one would be River Arrow (Herefordshire). Cavrdg (talk) 19:58, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
