Introduction

Historians believe that the Cheshire meres were created as a result of subsidence thousands of years ago. The mere at Pickmere was apparently formed when three pits created by subsidence flooded, together reaching a depth of 40ft in places. The sudden changes in water depth and temperature can be very dangerous for the unwary.
