More about this scene

This tranquil pool was dammed to supply water for a mill sited just behind the photographer. It lies within the old Delamere Forest, and nearby there is a small section of that original forest surviving – it is considered so important that it is now a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and is carefully managed to preserve it.
