	The Aquarium of the Lakes Visitor Attraction, The Lake District, Cumbria. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		As the rain lands on the impenetrable core of the central mountains, gravity starts it on its long journey to the coast, forming a myriad of cold, fast moving streams where little life survives apart from a few insects, mosses and microscopic algae.
		Rivulets feed the high tarns (there are more than 200 tarns and mountain pools in the Lake District) where, again, the cold waters offer few nutrients to sustain life apart from the occasional Brown Trout, Perch, newt and a few hardy plants.
		Much of the rain that falls on the mountains soaks away between the rocks and grass, re-emerging lower down the fellside as springs leading to tiny streams.

		All their Herdwick meat is hung for 10 days and comes as whole or half carcasses or in various joints or cuts.
