Of the three reservoirs, this is the one in the middle. It is elongated in a N-S direction, and this is a view along its length.
Rhu Reservoirs

The three reservoirs above Rhu were not present when the first-edition OS map was surveyed in 1860, but the second-edition map (revised c.1896) shows them as "Reservoirs (Row Water Works)", Row being the older spelling of the place-name Rhu.
