Description: Red Rocks, River Darwen, Hoghton, Lancashire, England. Below the weir are shown a waterfall known as Red Rocks because of the colour of the stone. The water above the weir ran off to provide water for the mills. The water below the weir is a mass of foaming water when flooding because of the angle of the river turning 90 degrees. This could be an historical image as, since the photograph was taken, the weir and its waterfall may not now exist.
