It looks a few shades different to water but similar. It also doesn't change with valley or relative terrain:
There are 3 of them around Stanage Edge with the centre of one being at 53 21’ 05”N 001 37’ 21”W
I can't see anything different on sat view
Tim, that screenshot is not from the UK, it's a few hundred miles off the location that Andrew specified 😉
Andrew, those "light blueish gray" areas is wetland. Try toggling off maplayer->geo->wetland, you will see them disappear then.

Ah ok. In which case I think that one might be wrong. Looking at the areas that I know and that area is right on the side of the edge and not particularly wet. I've been and looked at the areas where I am usually running up to my knees in marshy bogs and it's shown as normal ground.
I don't know if you have any control over these areas or if they are auto-generated.
It also doesn't particularly matter!
