Lumb Hole waterfalls and Crimsworth Dean Beck

I took this one last week at Crimsworth Dean, near Hebden Bridge. There's a plaque on a stone near the top of the waterfall commemorating the poem that poet laureate Ted Hughes wrote,

based on a photograph taken there. The poem was called 'Six young men' and was about them all leaving to fight in the First World War and not returning.

Whilst clambering around on the rocks in the river I managed to lose my guide book (it fell out of my pocket) and had to work out my own way back to the car as it was my first time on this circular walk!

Camera/lens settings: ISO 400, f/11, 1/160s, 18mm, hand held.
