Former rectangular reservoir, now abandoned, for water power at the Wilden Wireworks site (nprn 91595). The reservoir is bounded on the north west by a stone wall and earth bank and on the south east by the adjacent later railway embankment, which appears to have reduced considerably the water capacity. Remains of a stone-built water inlet and battered stone lining can be seen.
Site visited B.A.Malaws, 23 September 1999.
