Trent Falls

There is no waterfall at Trent Falls, but there is a rapid race of water at difficult stages of the tide (especially spring tides), and there is a tidal bore on the Trent. Boats coming down one river with an ebbing tide often have to wait several hours (sometimes beached on the sand, and sometimes overnight) until the tide turns and the flood can carry them up the other river.
