Cogra Moss is a shallow reservoir to the east of the village of Lamplugh on the western edge of the English Lake District.[2] It was created by the damming of Rakegill Beck in about 1880, though its function as a water supply ceased in 1975. The reservoir, which is surrounded by forestry plantations on three sides, is popular with walkers and anglers.[3]
