Description

The reservoir is a perfectly circular structure approximately 30m in diameter and 9m high, erected between the rock faces of a former quarry on the line of a small stream. It is constructed as a thin reinforced concrete shell with straight vertical sides topped with a narrow lip, and a dished bottom. The use of concrete in such a structural form was unusual at this date, and this example demonstrates some virtuosity of design.
