What is recorded here

The name Janet (sometimes Jennet) is believed to refer to a fairy queen held to inhabit this cave or one at the rear of the fall.
Janet's Cave is likely a limestone or sandstone formation, typical of regions where such names are associated with karst landscapes or water-worn rock features. The name suggests a long-standing folklore tradition, possibly reflecting pre-Christian beliefs in otherworldly beings associated with natural features.
