Landslip at Grassholme Reservoir
Landslip at Grassholme Reservoir
There's been some significant slippage of ground on the north side of Grassholme Reservoir. Certainly some of the damage occurred over the wet winter of 2015/2016 but the photographer is unsure whether all of the movement occurred over that period. The view is across the reservoir from the path on the south side; notices declare the path on the north side to be closed but there are no barriers to prevent walking there and the damage to the path can be passed with appropriate care.
