The River Chelt is a tributary of England's largest river, the Severn. The Chelt flows through the western edge of the Cotswolds and the town of Cheltenham, from which it derives its name,[1] before its confluence with the River Severn at Wainlodes Hill.[2][3]
There were a number of mills along the length of the river, the highest being in Charlton Kings and the lowest at Norton where the river passes under the present A38.[4]
The river caused significant flooding in 1979 and 2007.[5]
