Malham Cove

Malham Cove, Malham, Yorkshire, England

Malham Cove is a limestone formation 0.6 miles north of the village of Malham, North Yorkshire, England. The large, curved feature was formed by a waterfall carrying meltwater from glaciers at the end of the last Ice Age more than 12,000 years ago. Today it is a well known beauty spot within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. A large limestone pavement is above the cove.
