Everything about The River Tawd totally explained
The
River Tawd flows through
Skelmersdale and
Lathom in
West Lancashire.
The Tawd Bridge carried Ormskirk Road, the main arterial road from
Wigan to
Ormskirk and
Southport. This is well-known to
Upholland locals as the place where
highwayman George Lyons held up his victims during the 18th century. Today, the river flows through the middle of Skelmersdale in large culverts. It emerges near the town's shopping centre, The Concourse, and flows into a Country park on the site of the 19th and early 20th century
colliery. Parts of the river are a County Biological Heritage Site.
It is a tributary of the
River Douglas which it joins in Lathom.
