The River Saith does not meander to the sea. It walks to the edge of a cliff, and falls. The waterfall is the single feature that makes Tresaith unmistakable: a slim white column of fresh water dropping directly off the rock onto the sand and into the salt.

In the last decades of the 19th century, Tresaith reinvented itself. The Victorians had discovered that sea-bathing was good for you, that fresh air had medicinal value, and that the railways could now bring tourists to almost any coast in Britain in a single day.
