| Description: | A 'scar' below Penyghent. This limestone having many joints or cracks allows the water draining from the boggy ground above to run through. The water having humic and carbonic acid in solution widens the joints and so allows the water to sink down and emerges at the base of the scar instead of falling over the top. Added note: water issues here. |
