6 MR. EDWIN BUENUP'S REPORT OF 



unfortunately there being little water in the Merrigal Beck it 

 was not seen at its best. Here green spleenwort and brittle 

 fern were found, and in crossing the moor some white rattle. 

 It was a warm day with bright sunshine, and on arrival at the 

 side of a clear little stream overshadowed by juniper bushes 

 we were glad to rest and enjoy our lunch ; after which, 

 following the course of the Tees, we soon came in sight of 

 High Force, always grand and impressive, with its 6o-ft. clear 

 drop and imposing cliffs finely wooded. Passing through the 

 fir plantations, a path was taken along the lower meadows. 

 Quantities of shrubby cinquefoil were noticed on an island, 

 and on the banks of the river many of the other plants before 

 seen. Arriving at Winch Bridge a halt was made to admire 

 the fine falls just above and the grand formation of the rocks 

 and bed of the river. Returning by retracing our steps to the 

 bridge near High Force, a friendly lift bore us to Langdon 

 Beck in the neighbourhood of which the evening was spent. 

 On Friday morning Harwood Beck was explored, and after an 

 early lunch the party most reluctantly broke up, having spent 

 a most successful and enjoyable time.
