Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox body of water Burnmoor Tarn, on Eskdale Fell in Cumbria, England, is the largest entirely natural tarns in the Lake District. Its waters flow into Whillan Beck at the tarn's north-eastern corner, which immediately turns south and flows into Eskdale, joining the Esk at Beckfoot.[1] Burnmoor Lodge, a former fishing lodge, stands by the southern shore and a mediaeval corpse road runs past the eastern shore where it fords the beck.[2][3] Eskdale Moor or Boat How lies to the south of the tarn.
The tarn is one of the sites in DEFRA's UK Upland Waters Monitoring Network.[2] It occupies Шаблон:Convert and lies at an altitude of Шаблон:Convert in a moraine hollow on the uplands between Wastwater and Eskdale. The lake has two distinct basins close to the south-eastern shore and a maximum depth of Шаблон:Convert. There are four main inflow streams to the north and north-west. The outflow at the eastern end joins the Hardrigg Beck which drains the slopes of Scafell and, in times of especially high flow, is partly diverted into the lake across a braided delta.[2]
