50: 66: 1480:. Some of the becks feeding the western end of the river are known also as the Ea Beck Catchment. Other groups state that the name Ea Beck is the watercourse formed by the confluence of the River Skell and Hampole Dike. The course of the beck has been heavily altered, especially in its lower reaches, due to the coal seams found in that area which needed to be free from water ingress. Mining subsidence has led to the beck being modified with raised banks and pumps to effectively drain the water away. Colliery pumping programmes and raised banks along the river's course were implemented under the 1191: 1144: 1137: 1073: 1066: 920: 913: 807: 800: 694: 687: 626: 619: 318: 311: 1164: 980: 284: 1252: 1233: 1171: 1046: 1020: 1000: 947: 660: 646: 593: 573: 452: 291: 1272: 521: 433: 419: 357: 264: 1292: 1093: 494: 1306: 1299: 1213: 1115: 973: 860: 747: 653: 540: 513: 426: 364: 1519:. Flooding on the beck is quite common, though in June 2007, water overtopped the banks and inundated the villages of Toll Bar and Bentley. The tidal flood gates at the mouth of the River, were installed to prevent a backflow upriver from the Don. However, as that was already flooded with water from upstream in Sheffield, the gates remained closed and caused flooding along the Beck, causing problems in villages such as Toll Bar. 940: 906: 887: 880: 853: 834: 827: 793: 774: 767: 740: 721: 714: 680: 554: 547: 505: 485: 459: 400: 393: 371: 338: 73: 1523:
deployed firefighters to help pump water away from affected properties, in what was described as "the largest-ever peacetime fire service operation seen in Britain." This prompted the Environment Agency to invest over £3 million in flood defences along the river, which were completed in 2010.

The river has four monitoring stations at (from west to east) South Elmsall, Adwick-le-Street, Norwood, and Norwood (downstream). Norwood (downstream) recorded a high of 24.4 feet (7.45 m) on 10 November 2019. The mouth of the river is at Thorpe-in-Balne, where the exit into the River Don is

The beck is designated as a major river from Hague Hall Beck and Frickley Beck, to its outfall into the River Don at Thorpe in Balne. A long watercourse was taken from Ea Beck in the 1780s to power a corn mill at Adwick-le-Street.
