From the Wikipedia article
Blea Water is a tarn or corrie lake which occupies a glacially excavated hollow immediately to the east of High Street in the Lake District, England. At just over 200 feet (61 m) deep, it is the deepest tarn in the Lake District. It is drained by the Mardale Beck, which runs north-east into Haweswater.
