Description: Weathercote Cave. In the district between Whernside and Blea Moor the water draining from the high ground forms Little Dale Beck. This stream loses itself through fissures. On its underground journey is seen a large Pot or Cave whose roof has fallen in and where the stream emerges from beneath a cliff and falls in a beautiful force 75 feet in depth. Immediately over the top of the fall a great lump of fallen rock hangs caught and firmly fixed between the two sides of the opening. This is popularly known as 'Mahomets Coffin'.
