Highest waterfalls in the UK

The list of highest waterfalls is often controversial, due to the ambiguity of whether to measure the single largest fall or the sum of a series of falls, and many falls make false claims to the record. This table measures above-ground waterfalls by tallest single drop (not necessarily unbroken).
