Lanty's Tarn on Keldas
Lanty’s Tarn (depth to 2m) on Keldas, Patterdale, Lake District, Cumbria.
Lanty’s Tarn was named after Lancelot Dobson who once owned the land. It was bought by the Marshalls of Patterdale Hall in the 19th century. They dammed the outflow and stocked the tarn with brown trout from Ullswater. In winter, ice from the tarn would have been layered with straw and stored in the underground ice house (close to the dam) for use in the summer months.
