Tregeseal and Carn Kenidjack

Small lake, presumably a mining relic, about two hundred yards from the Tregeseal Stone Circle. Does anyone have a name for this small stretch of water?
Better than Bog Off , I take the ground is wet generally. I also understand there is a layer of clay below (broken down killas).
 
Thanks, DD! I knew that name even if not certain as to what area specifically it referred to. If I m not mistaken, there was a wink known as the Bog Inn out in the wilderness around Tregeseal (i.e. Carn Kenidjack) and a sort of relay station for those on horseback some centuries ago but I need to rediscover my reference. I have a feeling that it was part of an old story preserved by Hunt from Cornish folklore involving the spriggans of Carn Kenidjack or the Hooting Carn! I d be pleased to know.
