Best Answer

They are lakes that are in Ireland. Ireland has many lakes. Being on the east side of the Atlantic, it gets a lot of rain as weather systems cross the north Atlantic and cross Ireland as a the first major landmass before passing Britain and onto northern Europee. This is one of the reasons Ireland is so green. It also means there are lots of rivers and lakes in Ireland. Some well known Irish lakes include Lough Neagh, which is the largest, two lakes called Lough Derg, Lough Corrib, Lough Erne, Lough Ree, Lough Ennell and many others. Parts of the north midlands around the counties of Cavan, Westmeath, Fermanagh and Longford, have a lot of lakes.
