Full Description
The site is clear on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map. [1] The 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey map and the 6 inch 1903 map both show a reservoir in this location. [2,3] The site appears to be clear on the 6 inch 1962 map, though the reservoir may not have been labelled due to scale. [4] A reservoir is shown in the same position on modern mapping. It is not clear whether this is the previous or a replacement structure. [5]
