Aire

River in northern England; length 110 km/68 mi. It rises in the Pennine Hills near Malham, North Yorkshire, and flows through West and East Yorkshire to join the River Ouse near Goole. It also flows through Airedale, a valley lying between Malham Cove and Leeds.

Early in its course, the Aire flows east through the Aire Gap. The Aire and Calder Navigation is a system of rivers and canals; its chief branches are from Goole to Leeds, and from Castleford to Wakefield.
