Lake Lapworth existed in England in the Ice Age when ice from Wales and the north blocked the Dee outlet which flowed past where Chester is now. The Dee backed up, forming Lake Lapworth, until it overflowed southwards and cut the Ironbridge gorge, permanently diverting part of the Dee drainage into the river Severn.
