Ultimate English Lake District (with map)

The Lake District National Park is an extremely popular recreational destination within the UK and receives millions of visitors each year. There are nearly 100 bodies of water in the Lake District, with many having names ending in 'mere', 'lake', 'water' or 'reservoir'. There are also many small 'tarns' and others with unique names. Can you name the ones on this map of the area which are all located within the park boundary (shown in green)?
Prefixes and suffixes such as 'mere', 'lake, 'water', 'reservoir' and 'tarn' are NOT required
to be entered UNLESS the name is generally written as a single word.
The answers in bold and blue are usually considered to be the principal group of 'lakes.
The quiz doesn't include the rivers which flow through the Lake District.
There is a simpler version of this quiz, with just the 16 largest 'lakes', available at English Lake District:16 Largest (with map).

BlelHAM Tarn, not BlelHELM. Good quiz, though, I love my native Lakeland!

Thanks for that, I'm not sure why I missed that one. Now corrected.
