This is a links page to the named waterfalls found in the United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales), and includes a list of the highest waterfalls.
Highest waterfalls in the UK
The list of highest waterfalls is often controversial, due to the ambiguity of whether to measure the single largest fall or the sum of a series of falls, and many falls make false claims to the record. This table measures waterfalls by tallest single drop.
