River Sence

The River Sence is a river which flows in Leicestershire, England. The tributaries of the Sence, including the Saint and Tweed, fan out over much of western Leicestershire from Charnwood Forest and Coalville in the north-east to Hinckley and almost to Watling Street in the south and south-west. Its watershed almost coincides with Hinckley and Bosworth Borough of Leicestershire, which was formed in 1974 by amalgamation of Market Bosworth Rural District and Hinckley Urban District. It flows into the Anker, which in turn flows into the River Tame. It is part of the wider River Trent catchment, which covers much of central England. In 1881, Sebastian Evans wrote that the usual names for this river were Shenton Brook and Sibson Brook.〔Evans, Arthur Benoni (1881) ''Leicestershire Words, Phrases, and Proverbs''; edited, with additions by Sebastian Evans. London: Trübner & Co.; p. 47〕
==Confusions of the name Sence==
It is also used of the Saint and its tributary from Stapleton.〔Ordnance Survey (1887)〕〔Peter Foss (1998)〕 Antiquarian accounts of the Battle of Bosworth〔William Hutton (1788), The Battle of Bosworth Field〕〔John Pridden (1789), in John Nichols (1811), ''History and antiquities of Leicestershire''〕 label the brook upstream of Shenton “Tweed”. Recent Ordnance Maps 1:25 000 (2000) label only the “Tweed River” south-west of Stapleton and the 1:50 000 (1990) map gives it no name. The lower reaches from Shenton to Ratcliffe Culey are known locally as the Saint, as used below.
