Inflow into Tardebigge Reservoir
Inflow into Tardebigge Reservoir
The reservoir is fed by a small stream and a number of springs, which make the northern end distinctly marshy. The water level is at the maximum here, with water topping over the overflow Link into the Worcester & Birmingham Canal. The reservoir was built to supply the operation of the Tardebigge flight of locks on the canal. The operational supply is through a sluice gate Link near the top of the flight and was supplemented by water pumped Link from the lake to feed the canal above the flight.
