While we were trying to
locate the falls in Belleville, we were told that there was another
set of falls off the Allard Road which runs from Belleville to Woodville.
We found them just off the end of the Loomis Road a short distance
from Woodville.
The only picture we could get was of the very top of the falls.
We could see that there was more there but it was obscured by the
foliage from the road. There was a posted sign but it didn't
indicate who had it posted and we couldn't find anyone at the nearest
home to get permission. To honor the owner's signs, we didn't
proceed, even though it was probably less than 100 feet from us.
These falls are not indicated on maps. They are unnamed
and have no common local name. We have tentatively called
them this because there are three waterfalls that we know of on
the Sandy Creek and these are furthest downstream.
The Sandy Creek flows into Lake Ontario.
