That's not what the clue meant, and you've gone in the wrong direction from Third.

Silver was closer. Silver was very close, in fact. And you've got the right idea about the clue and name.

Still going the wrong way. Go back to Tin. Then to Silver. Then consider the possible (nomenclaturian) connections to another lake in the general area...

That was a cute clue.
Satellite view suggests a large marsh there - and spring explains how wet it looks.

It is a nice little walk in the north of the Park Tortoise.
It is an easy walk ( as long as you pick the right spot to get off the OLT). Gives some different perspectives of the the mountains too, as per Eggs shot.

Looks like it. Wonder if any of that duckboarding survived.

It reminds me of the point at which you reach the plateau above tranquil tarn but I can't relate that to your clue

OK sorry, I was taking a cue from Doogs' music reference. It's close to Stacks, closer to Sphinx and the indy rock tune about cutting one's hair was by a band that shares a name with .....

That must make it Pavement Bluff, at first I thought the clue referred to Byatts Razorback. Unfortunately I couldn't see more than 5 meters in front of me on Pavement so I couldn't check my photos.
