A. Not sure what the question is here - but it sounds a little like Hardraw Force -the Highest (single drop) waterall in England.

It is situated in Hardraw, just North of Hawes in North Yorkshire. It is on private land and can only be accessed via The Green Dragon pub for a small fee - see Walks

• ny110 Hardraw Force and Pike Hill from Hawes

• ny144 Hardraw Force from Hawes

• ny149 Great Shunner Fell from Hawes

If you don't fancy paying - or want to see what you'll be paying for before you do - we have a rather good photograph of Hardraw Falls taken by Ron Linton.

A. You can also walk behind Thornton Force at Ingleton - see Walk(s)

• ny100 The Ingleton Waterfalls from Ingleton

- (It has a large, square boulder at the bottom for i.d. purposes)

And you can also get behind Janet's Foss at Malham - see Walk(s)

• ny122 Gordale Scar and Malham Cove via Shorkley Hill from Malham

• ny159 Gordale Scar and Malham Cove from Malham

- with a bit of a scramble. Its got a curtain of rock (tufa, actually) - forming a sort of cave.
