The **River Sig** is a 2.4-mile (3.9-kilometre) river on [Dartmoor](/source/Dartmoor) in the county of [Devon](/source/Devon), England. It is a tributary to the [River Lemon](/source/River_Lemon), which it meets at [Sigford](/source/Sigford).

## Course

The river starts from marshland just to the south of Saddle Tor and the B3387 road on moorland, near Bag Tor Mire.[1][2]

It then flows south east, leaving the moor into forest before the Langworthy Brook joins from the right bank. It passes to the west of the village of [Sigford](/source/Sigford) before flowing into the Lemon, and therefore, indirectly flowing into the [Teign](/source/River_Teign). The River Sig and the River Lemon spring within 5,000 feet (1,500 m) of one another.
