Part of Graig Colliery & Brick Works (nprn 507795). Small reservoir, probably supplying the brick works at Graig Colliery, shown on 1st ed county OS map. Approximately 7m E-W across the slope, by 6m, with banks 1.5m high. It was filled from a stream entering at the south-west corner. It is breached in the NW corner. There is no visible evidence of how water was originally conveyed from the reservoir. Now dry.
