David Gold, Royal Mail’s director of external affairs and policy, said: “The British Isles are rich in natural beauty and these stamps highlight some of the UK’s most striking waterfalls in all four nations.

“They showcase the richness of our natural environment which has been shaped by water over thousands of years.”
