William Smith As a student of the Middle level I can tell you the "CROFT RIVER NEVER EXISTED" as a river. What has been corrupted into the croft river was in fact the "OLD Welney river" I have a collection of old maps and have published documents proving my information is correct.
It only became known as the Croft River in arrox 1865 by which time the 13th century alterations to the "Western Ouse" from Littleport to Denver, the 17th century Bedford rivers and the mid 19th century cutting of the Middle level Main drain ensured no water flowed in the once great waterway that carried the water of the Western Ouse, The Cam, The Wissy and the Lark.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.139.103.79 ( talk • contribs) 10:59, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
The map link no longer goes to a map which shows any of the features mentioned. Does anyone know how to fix it? Bob1960evens ( talk) 11:25, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
I would like to suggest the removal of the following.
Nearly the same text appears on the
River Waveney article, where it has had a citation needed tag since November 2011. I thought I would find some refs to enable me to remove the citation needed tags, but only found evidence that the whole thing is a bit tentative. See for instance, Godwin, H; Tallantire, P A.

The article seems to indicate the sources is very close to that of the Waveney looking at the map the Source of the Little Ouse is at least 2 miles further south. The river does place very close to the Waveney source . I suspect in the past the ouse fed into a small pond and two streams lef. see google maps https://www.google.com/maps/place/Diss/@52.3620512,0.9844089,15.22z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47d993453644bce7:0xe5513dfa0dd8b298!8m2!3d52.376491!4d1.108394 -- Kitchen Knife ( talk) 18:24, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
