Stile by the Ben Crom Reservoir
Stile by the Ben Crom Reservoir
Typical Mourne stile by the Ben Crom Reservoir. The sign beyond is rather pointless as the stile is clearly intended for walkers and is on a well marked route through the Mournes (also, the Department of the Environment Water Service no longer exists, the new quango with responisibility for the reservoir is Northern Ireland Water - see LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) ).
The Ben Crom Reservoir

The reservoir, the last part of the Belfast Water Commissioners plan for the area, was constructed in the upper Silent Valley from 1953-57 to hold and supply water into the larger Silent Valley Reservoir below. The dam wall is 700 feet across and the reservoir has a total capacity of 1.7 million gallons.
