Taylor Gill Force is a tall, thin fall on the slopes above the farmstead of Seathwaite, usually counted among the highest in the Lake District. Seathwaite is also known as one of the wettest inhabited places in England, so the fall tends to run well. Walk up from the farm, and carry on to Stockley Bridge if you have the legs.
