Kerbet Water , also known as Arity Water , is a stream in the Scottish Council Area Angus .

The stream is created by the confluence of the Kerbet Burn and Corbie Burn streams near the village of Inverarity . The place name itself ( Inver , Gaelic : Inbhir means mouth) is derived from the origin of the stream. Over its entire length of about nine kilometers, the Kerbet Water flows in a north-westerly direction. It crosses two trunk roads with the A90 and the A94 . The B9127, which runs from Arbroath to Douglastown , runs a few hundred yards east. After a few kilometers, the Kerbet Water reaches Douglastown and flows two kilometers northwest of the village into the Dean Water , which flows over the Isla into the Tay .

Various mills have operated along the Kerbet Water in the past. The stream is suitable for trout fishing.
