Q1: There are two shapes of lake in the Lake District. What are they?

[Answer]

The main lakes spread out from the highest peaks like the spokes of a wheel.

On a map, most of these lakes look the same, but when you visit them you find that each has a character all its own.

As well as the big lakes, there are also some tiny round lakes. These are found high up in the mountains.
