Hanmer Mere (Welsh: Llyn Hanmer) is a natural lake and a site of Special Scientific Interest in Wrexham County Borough, Wales. The village of Hanmer is at the northern end of the lake. The lake is 18 hectares (44 acres) in extent.

Hanmer is home to one of the nine Meres in this part of the world and it is a beautiful tranquil place. Having the bulk of St Chad's church looking down over the whole scene just adds to the ambience of the whole place.

Handy place to stop if you want a nice quite spot by a lake. There's also a small store on the corner if you want to buy a snack or drink.

With a lot of pleasure I stopped by and sat on a bench admiring the beauty of the Mere.

Located on the edge of Marbury village, Big Mere is a pretty stretch of water home to diverse wildlife. Here, you will find bird species from Goosander to Egret as well as many fish.

The lake is a lovely place for a picnic.
