High Force, Teesdale, County Durham

High Force breaks around 70 ft over Whin Sill, a doleritic intrusive rock stratum. The lower stratum is carboniferous limestone. It is often quoted as being the highest waterfall in England in terms of an unbroken drop – that isn’t actually true but it is a beautiful sight and relatively easily accessible from the B6277-road through Teesdale.
