Tom Falls

At the falls

Sunday we had a lazy morning, and then headed to Hawkshead Brewery for lunch.  It was a miserable and grey day when we got up but by the time we had finished our lunch it had cheered up.  As we are now National Trust members, we decided to head to Tarn Hows for a little walk.  Instead of doing the usual circuit, we decided to head off in search of Tom Gill Falls.  We headed into a green valley and headed down it until we found the waterfalls.  We had to stop to throw stones (of course).  It was very pretty.  We then carried on down and found more falls and even more.  Each time we had to stop to throw stones.

When we got to the bottom we found another track to take us back up again.  It wasn't a long walk (only 3.5 miles) but a very pleasant one.
