The View from the Southern Cliff
Standing on top of the southern cliff of Cheddar Gorge, there is a splendid view. In the foreground there is the gorge, at the bottom of which can be seen the mill pond and mill. Behind is the town of Cheddar and Cheddar Reservoir. To the right of the reservoir lies Axbridge. In the haze to the left the Quantock Hills are just visible on the horizon, whilst on the right the foothills of Mendip amble down to the Bristol Channel.
