taken 5 years ago, near to Fairlie, North Ayrshire, Scotland

Waterfall & Grotto - Kelburn Glen
Waterfall & Grotto - Kelburn Glen
One of Kelburn's outstanding features is the glen. In a space of just over half a mile the Kel Burn has forged the glen over thousands of years. It rises on the 250 metre moors above Kelburn Castle and drops dramatically via many waterfalls and deep gorges to the sea. The waterfall drops a sheer 6 metres into a spectacular grotto surrounded on three sides by overhanging cliffs of red and yellow sandstone.
