TF_The RunnerSevern at Bridgnorth- another vote.
Especially peg 178 just below the rapids on the Golf Course section- full mountaineering kit comes in handy.
Some areas of the Mole and Cherwell take prizes for height above water as a proportion of width of river -

TF_HillbillyThere is a peg on the Derwent at Matlock Derbyshire which I drew once and had to climb down 12 to 15 feet of a ladder to fish from a small concrete slab at the base of it.
