SK1396 : The source of the River Derwent
taken 13 years ago, near to Grinah Stones [other Features], Derbyshire, Great Britain
The source of the River Derwent
So the sign says, but there is no active watercourse in sight. Which way does it go?
harry hotplate adds: The sign went up in March 2002 and is (as with many rivers throughout the world) the ephemeral source of the River Derwent. It is on the highest point of the watershed and the run off from the cairn is to the left of the photograph (North) where it joins the lower tributary groughs on Swains Greave.
