Small Waterfall above Slape Wath by munki-boy
Slape Wath Waterfall
Slape Wath Waterfall is in The Yorkshire Dales National Park in England.
A tiny waterfall on the Whitfield beck at a good place to cross the river, just downstream from the much larger Whitfield Gill Force.
The riverbed over which Slape Wath Waterfall flows is interesting as the bedding is so much like horizontal blocks as to look almost like a built wall.
