Machno Falls

Description

Machno Falls, a very well hidden (and un-advertised) fall but well worth a look.

An old guide book describes the falls as follows: ‘Nature has double been assisted by art for the old mill wheel plays a most effective part in the view.’ Sadly the wheel has gone but the shell of the old corn mill is still standing. The clear water of the Afon Machno is turquoise as it falls into the chasm and surges into the cleft below.
