Exploring Aysgarth Falls - The place where Robin Hood met Little John (In the film) ! ;)



During our lovely vacation in the Yorkshire Dales recently we had several exciting days out.  One of them we visited the picturesque Aysgarth Falls, and here's a little piccy of us adventuring there.

Aysgarth Falls are a triple flight of waterfalls, surrounded by forest and farmland, carved out by the River Ure over almost a mile. 

For those of you who've seen the film 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves', you may be interested to know that the upper falls (seen in this photo) and middle falls too, were featured in the movie during the scenes where Robin Hood first meets Little John.  When they partake in their famous fight across the water, THIS is where that took place ... Pretty cool, huh ;)

Ruby and Emma didn't have a clue what Rocky was talking about when he was trying to explain about the famous filming etc here mind you.  Our littlest Munchkin even asked "Who'th Wobin Hood, Daddy ?" ... Bless her, hey.  But the girls loved running about and exploring none the less, whilst us adults watched the cascading waterfalls.  We all had a lovely day out though, and even Marguerite seemed to cheer up a touch from it too, which was great !

More holiday piccys to follow another day x
