SJ6309 : Ercall Reservoirs

taken 3 years ago, 3 km from Aston, Telford And Wrekin, England

Ercall Reservoirs
Ercall Reservoirs
This body of water, also called Wrekin Reservoir, is one of a pair (the other is covered) built to supply Wellington with water. They apparently no longer fulfil this function - Wellington's water now comes directly from the River Severn. Nevertheless, it is a popular location for anglers and this view is from one of the fishing platforms.
