| Caption: | Jannets Foss. [Settle Excursion.] |
| Description: | The Gordale Beck here plunges over a bed of hard limestone and the exposure of the hard water to the air has resulted in the formation of a fine tufa screen, behind which it is possible to enter a miniature Cave of the Winds. Tradition says that a tribe of fairies with Jannet or Gennet as the Queen used to meet here and thus gives it its name. |
