COLNE (The), a river of Essex. It rises on the north border of the county, 3 miles S of Haverhill; and runs about 35 miles south-eastward, past Halstead, Chapel, and Colchester, to the sea at Mersea island. It brings up sea-borne vessels to Colchester; and begins, 3 miles below that town, to expand into estuary.
