Can someone explain how the River Alt comes into it?
The Ribble is a river which flows into the Irish Sea and has it's own estuary. The 'Ribble Estuary', as it's always been known.
The Alt, on the other hand, is a river which flows into the River Mersey Estuary.
Both are rivers which drain totally different areas. The outline map of the Nature Reserve, which is shown here, goes nowhere near the River Alt or it's confluence with the Mersey. It doesn't even show the Alt on it.
