A Crummock Water Overflow
A fine lake with many steams and small rivers to fill it up must have an outlet, and here we see a view looking south in rather damp weather conditions. The River Cocker starts it life from this point here at the lakes northern end, flowing northwards into Lorton Vale ending up at the town of Cockermouth where it joins the larger river Derwent that flows west into the Irish Sea from Derwent Water. The lake itself sits between Loweswater to the north and Buttermere to the south and is 2.5miles long, 0.75miles wide and 140 feet deep (4km x 1.2km x 42.6m). Its circular shore circuit is 6.2m (10km) long as it has to do a couple of small detours.)
See PiPs for Buttermere and Loweswater.
HFF. Have a safe and enjoyable weekend.
