Malham Cove
Malham Cove, Malham in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, North Yorkshire, UK.
The 73m high cliffs were formed by earth movements from the Mid Craven Fault and ice melt-water flowing down the hillside from Malham Tarn. This torrent of water carved out the now dry Watlowes Valley before tumbling over the cliffs of the Cove to create a waterfall almost as spectacular as Niagara! In the process, soil from the top of the Cove was scoured away to leave exposed bare limestone. Acidic rain then seeped into cracks in the rock and dissolved it, thus creating the clints and grykes of the limestone pavement.
