This is a little cascade beside an old mill building. The mill building is now a private residence, and the lands around the falls are also private. This is an attractive site, although the waterfall itself is nothing special. You can view this falls from the road; please don't view into the neighbour's home too!
The cascade is perhaps 5 to 7 meters in height, a few meters wide and tumbles over a boulder-strewn channel. One can see some remnants of abandoned milling infrastructure beside the falls. A sawmill once stood in this area, using the river's power to saw wood for close to 100 years.
