Tufa Price of One
The tufa fall in Lathkill Dale. Tufa is a porous form of calcium carbonate which can precipitate from saturated solution, particularly in turbulent water flow such as waterfalls. The porous nature of the material helps promote plant growth so the falls are covered in thick vegetation.
Two dippers sit on top of the falls, more interested in each other than in me (it’s the start of their breeding season) and help justify the awful pun in the title of this post!
