The award for the highest single-drop waterfall in England goes to Hardraw Force waterfall with it's single drop of 100ft (30m). However there is a caveat as it's only the highest above-ground waterfall. The underground waterfall in the natural cave at Gaping Gill, also in Yorkshire, has s ingle drop of 322ft (98m). However Gaping Gill is not accessible to walkers - only cavers!
