Malham Cove, Malham, North Yorkshire

Malham Cove is a natural limestone formation near Malham, North Yorkshire, England.

A well-known beauty spot, it comprises a huge, curved limestone cliff at the head of a valley, with a fine area of limestone pavement at the top. To the left-hand side of the 80-metre high cliff face are about four-hundred irregular stone steps: these lead to an uneven limestone pavement which slopes gently down from nearby Malham Tarn.
