Did you know that High Force on the River Tees , just outside Middleton, is Britain’s tallest single-drop waterfall? The uninterrupted cascade from the top to the sparkling pool below is some 70 feet. The highest multi-tiered waterfall in Britain is Eas a’ Chual Aluinn in Sutherland , which can boast 650 feet of descending water, though at drier times it may seem more like a particularly steep stream!
