Your river is the Avon (Wark) conf R Leam to Tramway Br, Stratford, rated moderate

The Environment Agency rated the Avon (Wark) conf R Leam to Tramway Br, Stratford as moderate for ecological health in its 2025 assessment, meaning the river is noticeably changed by pollution or engineering. It is held back by water plants and algae and phosphate. It fails the chemical test, as every river, estuary and stretch of coast in England does, because of long-lasting pollutants such as mercury, PFOS (a forever chemical) and old flame retardants.
