Striding across Lumb Spout

'Lumb' and 'Spout' are both regional place names for a waterfall, so the small fall near Trawden (named on the 1:25000 map) across which these walkers are striding is tautologous. Note the smoothness of the rocks eroded by the water: one of the group slipped on the rocks and dropped his camera on this occasion!
