Cauldron Falls
Cauldron Falls
Cauldron Falls, also known as West Burton Falls, is a series of waterfalls on Walden Beck in the village of West Burton, North Yorkshire, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The falls take their name from the swirling plunge pools beneath the cascades.
Below the main drop, the beck continues under a packhorse bridge where a further cascade can be seen. The site also preserves the remains of a former town mill.
The waterfall sits just a short walk from West Burton's village green, making it accessible to visitors of all abilities. The surrounding shady spot attracts water-loving birds including dippers and wagtails.
The falls were among the Dales locations painted by J. M. W. Turner during his travels, and for those seeking more, footpaths lead onward up onto the open fellside.
