The Cregg River (Irish: Abhainn na Creige) is a river in County Galway, Ireland. The river rises from a spring a half mile to the north of Cregg Mill, and flows for about seven miles into Lough Corrib. The upper stretch of the river is a nursery for fish stocking of Lough Corrib, while salmon and brown trout fishing is permitted on the lower stretches.The Cregg River once powered three watermills, of which the converted Cregg Mill is the remaining example. The three mills stood together around the Cregg Mill bridge. The bridge there consists of seventeen arches, but only one arch is currently used. The nineteenth century Ordnance Survey Ireland maps show that the river was much wider at that point. However, due to artificial changes to the water level of Lough Corrib and the canalisation of the river, the river is now much narrower.

The River Clare (Irish: Abhainn an Chláir) is a river in counties Mayo and Galway in Ireland.The 93 kilometres (58 mi) long river rises north of Ballyhaunis in Mayo and descends past Dunmore, where it flows west, then turns south past Milltown continuing down through Kilbennan Church near Tuam. It continues south until past Turloughmore, then turns sharply west, flowing north of Claregalway and, thence, further westward into Lough Corrib. The River Corrib flow from the lake into Galway Bay. The Clare is the longest river in the Lough Corrib catchment.A large section of it is a former turlough (Irish: turlach), which, at 6.5 square kilometres, used to be Ireland's largest.The Clare has since the 1950s been subject to ongoing arterial drainage to lower the bed of the river and mitigate flooding. This has resulted in the river being straightened and canalized between ramparts of dredge material making access to the river difficult and compromising its value as a public amenity.The river is an important spawning channel for salmon and trout and a noted fishery in its own right for both species.Many young teenagers also swim in it during the summer.
