Ullswater is the second largest lake at 7.5 miles long. on average 3/4 mile wide and with a maximum depth of 205 feet at Howtown. It has three distinct bends giving it a dog’s leg appearance.
The village of Pooley Bridge is at the northern end, Glenridding at the southern end, with Howtown about halfway down.
Ullswater is clear but deep, and in the deepest part lives a curious fish called the skelly, a sort of freshwater herring.
I just love Ullswater and have enjoyed a couple of wonderful holidays there over the last couple of years, the swan reflecting on the water adds to that peaceful mood of the scene, beautifully captured, Regards, Rod.
Thanks, I thought the swan with the steamer in the background made an interesting photo.
