Stock Ghyll
Ambleside, LA22 0QZ
Stock Ghyll features a famous waterfall once written
about by the poet Keats.
The ghyll was once the lifeblood of local industry, powering
the bobbin mills for the Lancashire cotton trade. There is a
circular walk beginning at the southern entrance which takes you
via a signposted path up to the viewing platforms and over the top
of the falls, before descending again.
A recent addition is a disabled access point to the top
viewing platform. Stock Ghyll is also a gateway to Wansfell Pike
and Troutbeck.
