Good little stream with many little waterfalls to the main one

This isn’t a towering drop (about 2–3 meters high, with mossy steps), but it’s part of the classic Goyt Valley scenery, surrounded by ancient quarries and views of Errwood’s deep waters (up to 35m in places). It’s often encountered en route to Goytsclough Quarry, an old lime works turned nature spot.

This highlight is positioned at a viewing point for the waterfall. If you wish to actually stand next to the waterfall you would need to head down to the river, carefully cross the river and then carefully make your way along the river bank to the waterfall. When I did this we hadn't had much rainfall and so the water levels were very low. So, this access may vary depending on the water level of the river at any given time.

would advise after rain. only a trickle today

The streams in Deep Clough, Goyt's Clough and Berry Clough all flow into the River Goyt which then fills Errwood Reservoir. The streams are lively after rainfall and there are some good waterfalls to be found in the steep sided valleys.

Stunning waterfall at Cumberland Clough, tumbling into Cumberland Brook.

This is a small but impressive waterfall on the River Dean. It is in a beautiful setting at the lower end of Clough Pool. It has a certain amount of man-made influence, as the top of it appears to be built on to a natural waterfall to create the mill pond above it. It was used by Ingersley Clough Mill back in the nineteenth century. This is simply a delightful scenic spot.

Very popular spot for hikers and wild swimmers. All routes away go up!

This is a beautiful hidden waterfall situated on the edge of Alderley Edge in Waterfall Wood. Water flows off the edge of a rock face into a pretty pool of water below creating the perfect forest vista as your passing through.

This gets very busy, especially in the summer months with people wanting a dip. Get there early if you want the place to yourself!

Quite a landmark, the Three Shire Heads is found at the point on Axe Edge Moor where Cheshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire meet. The packhorse bridge and small waterfall make for a photogenic setting and very popular wild swimming (or at least, a wild dip!) spot.

If you can get there early you'll appreciate the solitude as later in the day it can get very busy

Good place for a dip.

Speaking with a local who mentioned it was the first time she'd seen it frozen in ten years.

Three Shires Head

Give way to walkers, all four paths are very rough & rocky. Given the chance the terrain will eat your derailleur for breakfast!😳🚵‍♂️

This is an entertaining little stop off and good for a cool down on a hot day! If you are on a MTB, the way down (either direction) is a lot of fun - a bit rocky in places - but the climbs out can be a bit awkward - only one in our group made it all the way without a push in places.

Three Shires Head is the Grade II listed stream bridge (or waterfall, accounts differ) which marks the intersection of three counties; Staffordshire, Cheshire and Derbyshire. The run around cut-thorn hill to here is an entertaining blast, too; not too techy but lots of fun, and it finishes here - one of the best picnic spots for miles. Enjoy this place for a wild swim, with clear plunge pools and waterfalls here in the River Dane.
