Waterfalls - Tom Gill

The authorities proudly announce that 1 million people visit Tarn Hows every year. Personally I don't believe it, but whatever the number is, I'm sure only a fraction of the visitors ever take the short de-tour to look at Tom Gill Waterfall. Part of the reason could be because people simply don't know the falls are there or if they know they're there, perhaps they don't realise how close they are.

Many of the more impressive waterfalls in the Lake District are definitely out of reach for the none fell walking visitor. Tom Gill, on the other hand is within easy reach for anyone with the ability to tackle a short, steep (ish) incline; easily enough to get within a few feet of the bottom of the falls.
