Force Jumb
Force Jumb is in The Lake District National Park in England.
A small waterfall in a very narrow rock gorge on the River Kent at Kentmere. No proper access as the public footpath crosses a bridge higher upstream.
This waterfall has been renamed ‘Force Jump’ on the recent OS maps but the old name is Force Jumb which may relate to the narrow squeeze through which the water flows. (A possible root of Jam (tight) is chamb or cham (bite). It’s a fairly small waterfall and not much of a ‘jump’.
