Arkle Beck
Arkle Beck is the stream running through the valley of Arkengarthdale in the Yorkshire Dales, England. It is a tributary of the River Swale, which it joins just past Reeth at Grinton Bridge. The beck itself has several tributaries which include:
- Great Punchard Gill joins the beck just north of Whaw
- William Gill drains a substantial area of West Moor into Beck Crooks, which is the first tributary after Arkle Beck's source
- Annaside Beck joins just below Beck Crooks
- Roe Beck joins at Shepherd's Lodge just above Great Punchard Gill
