A question came up on the BBC program Pointless about Cumbria all about the Lake District
What is the biggest lake in Cumbria.The answer given was Lake Windermere .Correct .Wrong it’s a mere.Ther is only one Lake in the Lake District with lake I it’s title that is Bassenthwaite the rest are waters,Tarns or Meres
Shows how pointless this program is.
I wasn’t watching the program it was Mrs P who asked me the question.
Perhaps a better way of putting the question would have been what is the largest expanse of waterin the Lake District..
