ダービーシャーデイルズの滝・トップ16

この滝は木立の中にうまく隠されています。しかし、乾燥していると湿った崖壁に遭遇するため、雨季に訪れるのが最適です。

Nice area to stop by, have a snack and enjoy the peaceful noise of a running stream. Don't stop if you need to pee haha! :)

normally a nice waterfall but bone dry today

The "Twelve Weirs" on the River Lathkill are a series of small dams constructed during the Victorian era, primarily for trout fishing purposes. These weirs are located in Lathkill Dale, a picturesque limestone valley near Bakewell in Derbyshire's Peak District National Park. The valley is renowned for its natural beauty, including clear waters, waterfalls, and diverse wildlife. https://www.myccpay.it.com

Great

Short little walk if you can get parked on the road. Beautiful place that is a must see!

The mill pond itself is not particularly exciting, but it tells a story of an industrial history now hidden in the trees and overgrowth that surrounds it. You can find out more about it on this website (https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/learning-about/archaeology/greens-mill) - There is a QR for this website located on the path close to the mill pond.

Harnessing the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention of human discovery, whose origins can be traced back to ancient times. Thanks to such a design, a watercourse – natural or artificial – could simply replace human or animal muscle power with the power of natural elements, for example, to grind grain into corn or press oil from fruit. There are essentially two drive variants for watermills: * Either the flowing water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or * the water is guided above the wheel – usually through a so-called "mill channel" – and falls onto the blades. This design, thanks to natural gravity, ensures greater efficiency.
