Janet's Foss in Autumn by munki-boy
Janet's Foss
Janet's Foss is in The Yorkshire Dales National Park in England.
Janet’s Foss is a small but picturesque waterfall in a woodland area close to Malham. It is supposedly named after a witch who used to live in the small cave to the right of the waterfall.
If you climb around the slippery rocks to the cave where Janet the witch is supposed to have lived, you’ll find it’s quite small.
