Lake Lapworth : ウィキペディア英語版
Lake Lapworth
Lake Lapworth existed in England in the Ice Age when ice from Wales and the north blocked the outlet of the River Severn near the site of Chester. The Severn backed up, forming Lake Lapworth, until it overflowed southwards and cut the Ironbridge Gorge, permanently diverting part of the Severn drainage into the Lower Severn. It was named by Leonard Johnston Wills for Charles Lapworth, who first suggested its existence in 1898.
The carving out of the Ironbridge gorge exposed coal, iron ore, fireclay and limestone deposits which enabled the development of ironworks in the area at the start of the Industrial Revolution.
The market town of Newport, Shropshire, sits atop a sandstone ridge, which in the last Ice Age was an island or peninsula in Lake Lapworth. Early man fished here, and two log boats were uncovered a mile from Newport. One has been preserved and is now at Harper Adams University at Edgmond.
Aqualate Mere is a remnant of Lake Lapworth.
