Stainforth Force in Black & White. - a photo on Flickriver

            That's my best mate 'Digger' Dave, standing next to the waterfalls at Stainforth, Yorkshire Dales.
Taken with an Olympus 35 RC Rangefinder & Agfa Vista 200 film.
Best known locally for the annual salmon leap!
Here, the River Ribble tumbles over a series of cascades where salmon can often be seen leaping on their final journey up river to their spawning grounds. 
Stainforth, Its name derives from the 'stony ford' which linked two settlements half a mile apart on opposite banks of the River Ribble north of Settle. Stainforth, on the eastern side, was formerly owned by Sawley Abbey, whose monks developed the estate which prospered, while Little Stainforth, under private ownership, declined. In the 1670s, Samuel Watson replaced the ford by a packhorse bridge whose arch spans a wooded stretch of the river, and a grassy patch leads downstream to Stainforth Force. In Little Stainforth the three-storey Stainforth Hall was built at the same time and is now occupied as a farmhouse.
