Main Dyke

Last updated

Main Dyke is a water channel running through the Fylde area of Lancashire in England.

The Main Dyke is an outflow of the largely drained Marton Mere, Blackpool, [1] though Marton Mere originally released its waters via Spen Brook in the opposite direction .

The Main Dyke joins the River Wyre at Skippool, [2] appearing to follow the course of an earlier "Skippon River" (named as such on John Speed's map of the county).
