The source of the stream, then known as St. Sunday's Beck, is close to New Hutton, whence it passes Stainton, where it is renamed Stainton Beck.[1] The Lancaster Canal crosses the beck at Stainton by a Grade II listed aqueduct.[2]

The stream continues southwards to meet Peasey Beck near Milnthorpe to form the River Bela.
