Diss Mere Norfolk mystery

Diss is a pretty little town in South Norfolk surrounded by a beautiful countryside of the Waveney Valley.But the highlight is its puzzling small lake found in the Market Town of Diss.How was it formed is a real mystery and also where does its water come from!.. An old tradition speaks of a crater of a dormant volcano but the surrounding area doesn't comply with it.The lake is 6 acres and about 60 ft depth. Its bottom is covered with 40ft of mud.

the title to the image already sounds fascinating! i just googled diss mere, norfolk, and looked at some aerial views: seen from above those meres do look a lot like craters – very strange indeed! i like, how you captured it through a "hole" in the trees, which makes it even more precious and mysterious looking: a lake with a secret! greetings, sabine. p. s.: is it just me, or is the image leaning a little to the left?
