Depends what you mean by Britain? If you mean the whole United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, I think it's Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland. If you look at a map of Northern Ireland it's right in the middle.

It depends what you mean when you say the biggest. Do you mean in lenght, in width, in depth, in land coverage? A lake can be 100 miles long yet be only 10 feet in depth Is that `bigger` than a lake 50 miles long and 100 feet in depth? I think we should assume the biggest lake is the one which holds the greatest volume of water. I think that honour goes to a lake in Ireland lough Neagh. The lake district in Cumbria has several very large lakes including Winder-mere and Coniston Lake. Coniston Lake has the longest stretch of straight deep water, that is where many of the world water speed record breaking attempts were made. Of course it is where Sir Donald Campbell was killed over sixty years ago when he attempted to break the record in his famous `Bluebird` speed boat. Curiously enough, quite recently they showed his attempt on a T.V. program in the UK.

I believe that it is Lake Windermere in the Lake District and very beautiful it is.
