Crummock water is a freshwater lake in England's beautiful Lake district. It is in the county of Cumbria and approaching from the Vale of Lorton, Crummock is the first lake you come to. It is miles long, three-quarters of a mile wide and 140 ft deep. From Lanthwaite Green found at Crummock, there is a rough path which climbs over Coldale Pass and descends down to Braithwaite. As you continue the road round the top of Crummock Water, is the mountain or fell know as Grasmoor. Also located around the lake is Melbreak which rises steeply out of the water. Like many of the other Lakes and Waters found in Cumbria, Crummock is a reservoir which supplies the town of Cockermouth, north-west of the lake. Crummock water is connected by a small stream or beck to another lake, known as Buttermere.
