From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tooley Creek is a small watercourse that drains into Lake Ontario near Darlington, Ontario.[1] It drains 1,050 hectares (4.1 sq mi).

Groundwater discharge from the bluffs left from glacial Lake Iroquois feed the headwaters of Tooley Creek.[2]

Its watershed is bordered by the watersheds of three other watercourses, Darlington Creek, Farewell Creek and Robinson Creek.[1]

It is believed that groundwater discharge from the Iroquois Beach deposits and the lower sediments makes significant contributions to the upper reaches of the following Creeks that originate in the southern part of the study area: Pringle Creek, Corbett Creek, Robinson Creek, Tooley Creek, Darlington Creek, Westside Creek and Bennett Creek.
