Hareshaw Linn is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in the village of Bellingham in Northumberland and is designated for its rare ferns and lichen. More than 300 different types of mosses, liverworts and lichen can be found in there.
The waterfall is 30ft high and tumbles down the ancient rock face. After a couple of days of snow showers and some freezing temperatures I was curious to see what effect this would have on the waterfall.
The waterfall was covered in various icy deposits and part of the plunge pool below was frozen. The side of the waterfall was covered in small icicles and there was a very cold chill coming off the waterfall if you went close to it - probably not surprising when it was only -4 degrees when I left the car to walk up to the waterfall.
