Where to Photograph Waterfalls in England

We are attempting to list all places where photographers can photograph Waterfalls within England. This is the start of a list that will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information. This list has been produced in county order to make it easier to find all waterfalls that might be within range of each other. Overtime as the list grows this list may be split into a number of county pages.

Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked this links to a Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location pages.

Codes: FC = Forestry Commission, Wiki = Wikipedia, NT = National Trust, BE = Britain Express
