This waterfall is named after the supposed story of a young lad who loved the millers daughter. The miller didn't approve and refused to allow him, he left an eye glass in the thatch of the miller’s house and it burnt to the ground. The waterfall is therefore named Spectacle E'e (eye) Falls.
You get a good view of the falls from the path, it's a nice walk from Strathaven.
