The River Ribble looking upstream from Giggleswick Memorial Bridge, with the river rushing over rocks after a placid stretch. Apparently this was once "King's Rock", according to http://www.archive.org/stream/churchwardensofg00brayiala/churchwardensofg00brayiala_djvu.txt (1884) , which also comments that it "is rapidly breaking up", so it was presumably more of a rock-like feature.
