Number of lakes in the English Lake District?
This is a favorite question Trivia! The answer is that there are only a few parts of the water in the Lake District that "lake" in their name. Bassenthwaite Lake is one, but what are the others?
Note that only one body of water, Bassenthwaite Lake, a lake is officially named. The simple name or the water is generally given to a larger mass of water in the Lake District while tarn normally refers to a smaller one.
