It takes a lot of rain to persuade me to forsake my walking boots for wellingtons. But when the usual route looks more like a series of lagoons with the odd island to hop onto then its time to consider a new approach. The spates are summed up at the two waterfalls on Blacka. The first is so close to a popular path but has been difficult to access. Now near to the Ramblers commemoration of their long serving officer, just through the trees you can reach the top of the sudden drop to the gorge of Blacke Dyke.
But the more elegant of the falls is on the Lee Stream well away from normal human traffic. Just above the falls at the moment are several minor falls and a mad rushing of water all adding to the appeal of this secluded area.
