Tringford Reservoir
Tringford Reservoir
Tringford is one of four reservoirs in the vicinity that were built in the early 19th Century to maintain water levels in the Grand Union Canal as it crosses its summit in the Chiltern Hills; the others are Startops, Marsworth and Wilstone, the latter being by far the largest. The four Tring Reservoirs are a favourite haunt of bird-watchers and fishermen, and are now designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest on account of their wealth of
wildlife.
