Peene Becque

The Peene Becque (West Flemish: Penebeke) is a small river in the Nord department in France.

The Peene Becque has its source in Sainte-Marie-Cappel, south of Mont Cassel, flows first west through Oxelaëre and Bavinchove, then takes a north-eastern direction through Zuytpeene, Noordpeene, Ochtezeele, Arnèke, Ledringhem, Wormhout and Wylder where it ends its course by flowing into the Franco-Belgian river Yser.

According to the organisation Schéma d’Aménagement et de Gestion des Eaux (SAGE) de l'Yser,[2] the water quality of the Peene Becque is poor, with domestic pollution having a greater impact than agricultural pollution, especially in summer when the water level is low.

The Peene Becque has even smaller tributaries, no more than large ditches, like the short one passing through the centre of the village of Ledringhem, the Trommels Becque, looking like an open air sewage serving the La campagnarde neighbourhood; the Zermezeele Becque;[3] the Cray hill becque (4.4 km) crossing Arnèke; or the Lyncke becque (6.7 km) crossing Zuytpeene.
