The ridge at the top of the fall is perfect for crossing barefoot. Its a very shallow depth.

The rocks below are perfectly situated for a very invigorating seated shower too, should the urge arise in summer ...and you don't mind soaked shorts.

I sure wish I lived here!!!

Gawton was a lucky hermit!

A real hidden gem and definitely worth a visit. Nestled within rocky outcrops and woodland the atmosphere at this spot is incredibly peaceful and soothing.
