Lydford Gorge : ウィキペディア英語版 | River Lyd (Devon)
The Lyd is a river rising at Lyd Head〔 (Corn Ridge in NW Dartmoor) in the Dartmoor national park in Devon in south-west England and flowing into the River Tamar beyond Lifton.〔 This is the deepest gorge in the South West of England. ==Lydford Gorge== Lydford Gorge (National Trust) is a dramatic feature of the river at Lydford on the edge of the National Park; it is a 1.5-mile-long (2.4 km) gorge near Lydford on the River Lyd, which is the deepest in South West England. It was formed by the process of river capture, where the start of a nearby river eroded backwards until its origin intersected with the Lyd diverting its course into the second channel.〔 Owned and maintained by the National Trust since 1947, the gorge features the 100-foot-high (30-metre) 'White Lady Waterfall' and a series of whirlpools known as the 'Devil's Cauldron'.〔
