GeoGraph - photograph every grid square

· Tree

I thought it might be useful to define exactly where the falls at Aysgarth are located on the map, as some contributors seem confused as to which fall they are photographing. Working downstream, the Upper Fall drops down through extensive rock slabs from just inside square SE0088 across the grid line and into SE0188. The 1:25000 map shows two fall 'lines', the top one being right on the grid line. If a photo has been taken from the bridge, then I would suggest that the photo comes within SE0188. [see photo by Nigel Homer, which is spot on] Anything taken from the picnic field alongside the top of the fall should come within SE0088.
The bridge is located at SE011886, and from there it is some 250m downstream to the Middle Falls. These are almost always photographed from the north bank as the only safe [and legal] access is from this side, via a series of stone steps leading down to a viewing platform. Photos taken from here [depending on angle and tree growth] usually show the tower of St Andrew's church on the south bank. The location of the falls is at SE012887 or 013887. The lower falls are usually accessed by the path from Freeholders Wood and Riddings Field. The approach path offers a view of the falls, which in normal conditions drop in a series of 'steps'. Close ups can be obtained from the rocky slabs on the north side of the falls. Photos looking across the falls or upstream usually include a line of mature beech trees on the south bank. Access is possible [but illegal] from the south bank, where a public footpath runs through the field behind the beech trees. Signs on this path deter access to the riverside. The location of the lower falls is at SE018888. Below the 'public areas' at Aysgarth there is another small fall/rapids. This is marked on the map at SE021888 and can be viewed from the footpath on the south bank of the river.
Almost all photographs will be taken looking somewhere between south and west, unless one is looking downstream.
