This is a spectacular section of the River Darwen, where a picturesque sandstone gorge leads to a tumbling weir and the 108-foot (33 m) high Hoghton Bottoms Viaduct towers above. The weir sits at the top of the sandstone gorge - the only feature of its type in the Ribble Catchment - and it is crossed by the Hoghton Tower Viaduct. The weir is a famous local landmark and is easily accessible thanks to a public footpath running alongside the river.

Music is "Morning Glory" by Enya.

The trees were too dense for my drone - my skills are still at the learning stage - that said, some of this video had me nervous enough, lol...

Nicely captured.  

Lovely scenes. Nicely reflective soundtrack.

Thank you - I like to find what I call "real" music rather than the made for YT stuff if I can (subject to copyright of course).

It's best if the soundtrack suits the mood of the video isn't it

INdeed it does.

I've seen some videos of sweeping countryside and blue skies with the look of calmness everywhere... and a  high temp thud thud techno track ruining the whole thing!

A bit ridiculous, isn't it.   I use a lot of free stuff from the likes of Eric  Matyas.  He has a wide range of styles to choose from.

I have used a track or two from Eric too.

There is plenty royalty free stuff available, but the creator of the clips sometimes need to think twice with some I have heard...

Majestic views!  Nicely captured.
