Talk:Lake District/Archive 1
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Did you know that there is only one real lake in the lake district? The rest are waters and meres etc. Should this be put onto the page?Kingalex1st (talk) 15:16, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

- Please don't delete this page. It is part of a list of National Parks in National parks (England and Wales).
It would be good if it contained more factual information at the beginning, especially about its own National Park authority. User:Renata
This page needs expanding: it's one of the most famous parts of England. Needs a longer list of fells; comprehensive list of lakes; more on people associated with the area (Beatrix Potter springs to mind). Also, I think the OS figure for the height of Scafell Pike is definitive, no need to mention Wainwright's figure. I'll update this page eventually if nobody else does. --Auximines 09:55, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Agreed, it definitely needs work. I went ahead and remove Wainwright's height (as far as I understand, AW normally took his heights from the contemporary OS maps anyway, so the updated OS figure is the one to use). There is a Beatrix Potter page already (but it's not yet linked). Some mention of the many tarns is also needed. The Cumbria page lists a number of lakeland topics and places not yet on this page - these two pages should probably be co-ordinated. --David Edgar 16:50, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)
