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.

normally a nice waterfall but bone dry today

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

A beautiful waterfall just off the path.

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.

Many types of wildlife drwn to here make sure you take your camera

The Lathkill flows entirely over limestone, and as such used to become dry in the summer and during periods of low rain. The Victorians prized the river for its clarity and trout fishing, so they built 12 weirs to hold the water and maintain the fishing.

Stunning waterfall at Cumberland Clough, tumbling into Cumberland Brook.

Overgrown tracks - suggests walking boots and long trousers

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

Absolutely incredible waterfall outside Heaton, typically with few crowds as well.

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

Fantastic multi element waterfall. The more recent rain the more spectacular.

Good place for a dip.

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