Description
Reservoir formed by straight dam across a narrow stream valley. The dam is about 20m long and about 1m thick. It has an off-centre buttress.There is a major break at the North end where the last 5m were completely destroyed. The reservoir still holds almost prior capacity as the breach is partly blocked. A second GPS reading was taken at the North end. (A.C.K. Roseveare & N.A.R. Vaughan, AP, 29/03/2007)
