Dolerite (aka Whinstone) @ Low Force - Newbiggin - Barnard Castle, England, UK

Low Force cascades over the "Whin Sill" at the River Tees. The Whin Sill is an erosion-resistant layer of igneous (volcanic) rock called Dolerite (aka Diabase in North America). Locally, the dark, hard rock is known as "whinstone." The stone is black, hard, and difficult to shape.
