Background
Description
]] The Mease is formed by a confluence of smaller streams near the village of Norton Juxta Twycross in North West Leicestershire. The river flows through areas underlain with bands of Triassic Period sandstone and Mercia Mudstone. After flowing through a wide valley between the villages of Measham and Appleby Magna, the land opens up into flat countryside: the river's path is not of steep topography, meaning the river flows gently and meanders "passively".
