Description
Rosebery Reservoir was designed by James and Alexander Leslie in 1880. It features a Z plan dam made mainly of squared and snecked, bull-faced pink sandstone, along with sandstone rubble and a stugged semi-circular coping on the slightly battered retaining wall. The structure includes a polished sandstone corniced upstand shaft topped with cast iron railings, and there is a pedimented opening to a channel that emerges from the base of the embankment. To the west of the dam, there is a curved overflow with a stepped down channel that is crossed by a plate girder bridge.
