Blea Tarn (Eskdale)

Blea Tarn is a lake in Eskdale, Cumbria, in the English Lake District, located about half a mile north of Beckfoot. Located at an elevation of 217 m (712 ft), the lake has an area of 3.3 hectares (8.2 acres) and measures 277 m × 150 m (909 ft × 492 ft), with a maximum depth of 11 m (36 ft).

There are other lakes called "Blea Tarn" in the Lake District (in Borrowdale and Little Langdale). John Taylor commented in 1905 that in the ... days when place-names were being given, the inhabitants of one of our secluded valleys were so cut off from their fellows that they would call a rock Eagle Crag or a small sheet of water Blea Tarn, quite unaware that on the other side of the hill the same titles were being afiixed to other cliffs and waters.
