Sutton Bank 
Lake Gormire 1

Gormire is one of the few truly natural lakes in Yorkshire. It is roughly semicircular in shape with a diameter of about ¼mile running along the bottom of the escarpment. Gormire Rigg is a glacial feature creating a bowl shape behind the lake. There are no streams in or out of the lake, but springs emerge on the far side of Gormire Rigg near High Cleaves Farm (centre). The lake is almost surrounded by the dense forest of Garbutt Wood.
