Hornsea Mere is the largest freshwater lake in Yorkshire, [1] England, and lies to the west of Hornsea in the East Riding of Yorkshire.[2] The mere was used as a base for the Royal Naval Air Service and then latterly, the Royal Air Force during the First World War. It covers an area of 467 acres (1.89 km2), is 2 miles (3.2 km) long, 0.75 miles (1.2 km) at its widest point and 12 feet (3.7 m) at its deepest.[3][4] The average depth of the lake is 4 feet 11 inches (1.5 m) and the mere itself lies only 26 feet (8 m) above sea level.[5] The mere is fed by several small streams and a sluice gate at the eastern end of the mere controls the outflow, which travels only 0.68 miles (1.1 km) eastwards to the North Sea.[6][7]
