Longest rivers in Wales

This is a table of the longest rivers wholly or partially in Wales.Encyclopædia Britannica. 1911. "Wales" Rivers only partly in Wales are included in this table in ''italics''. Note that river lengths given by different authorities vary due to the different ways in which the measurement is made or indeed estimated. That rivers are partly fractal in nature accounts for some variation and lengths can also vary slightly over time as meanders expand or are cut off where rivers run through broad flood-plains.
