The Waterfall Collector

What is it about waterfalls that fascinate us? After all, it's just water flowing over rocks. Why do we feel compelled to visit them over and over again. They are all unique, each one is different. Why do we find them enchanting, romantic and even mysterious? These photos are a few of my favourites. More will be added, as and when I take them. Suggestions for more to visit will be most welcome.

Stainforth Force

Stainforce Force is a beautiful small waterfall on the River Ribble situated just west of the village of Stainforth. As the waterfall so close to the village, and a caravan park and also on the Ribble Way it is a well visited beauty spot and like many others close to roads and villages it is a favourite spot for family picnics. The waterfall begins as a series of small cascades followed by a final slightly larger one of approximately 4 feet.
