All the rain we'd been having at the time meant that the River Wharfe was pouring over the rocks at Linton Falls in a torrent. It was an eerie brown colour too. I suppose such a strong flow stirs up the mud and peat. It's a pretty spot, just down the hill from the village of Grassington, where a footbridge crosses over the river. It's the gateway to several good walks up and down stream. Upstream there is a weir and a small hydroelectric plant. There are a few houses backing on to the falls. I suppose they must just get used to the tremendous noise of rushing water.
(Heck, this is my 3500th blog post!)
