The mature stage of river development is characterized by flat flood plains where the river meanders and deposits sediment. In this stage, the river has a large volume of water and is more stable, leading to the creation of wide flood plains.
An ' Old River' is a river with a low gradient and low erosive energy. Old rivers are characterized by flood plains.

Flood Plains
Meandering course: Old age rivers have a winding and meandering course with gentle gradients as they have eroded their valleys over time. Wide floodplains: Old age rivers typically have wide floodplains due to their ability to transport and deposit sediments over many years, resulting in a broad and flat area alongside the river.
Flood plains are formed when the river overflows its banks.It deposits layers of fine soil and other material collect sediments which are very fertile.
They have all been formed by Sandblasting
