The web address I gave was intended to read
http://www.multimap.com
and this still works for me. I'm sorry if you or your software were
confused by the comma which I put at the end; I should have made clear
that it was intended not as part of the URL but as part of the
punctuation of the sentence in which I quoted the URL. I was too lazy
to try to create a directly clickable link in the message.
As for the search for the lake once you've reached the website, a search
for "Rudyard" (which is what I suggested) works for me, though I
realised after sending the original message that this is because of a
slight cheat. It actually finds the village of Rudyard, which is about
2 miles NW of Leek. But it gives you a view which also includes the
lake, which is in turn just NW of the village.
The lake is marked as "Rudyard Resr". A search for "Rudyard Lake" or
"Rudyard Reservoir" will fail, as it does not exactly match the name on
the map.
