Lake
The Lough is a shallow, freshwater lake with an average depth of one metre and a total area of 4 hectares. It is an important wildfowl preserve, particularly for swans, and has been a protected area since 1881. The Lough is also popular for coarse angling and is home to fish species such as carp, eel, tench, rudd and perch.
Circumference
The outer border of The Lough is 1.1 kilometers (0.68 miles approx.) with the inner border just less than 1 kilometer.
Demographics
The Lough is in close proximity to a density of student accommodation, largely due it being adjacent to the main University College Cork campus.
