Some walls of Castleshaw Reservoir

Some walls of Castleshaw Reservoir
This area has real history. The Romans, whist occupying England had a fort just right of this scene. Here we see not a Roman fort but a diversion outlet for one of the feeder streams running from the higher Saddleworth Moors surrounding us here. I think too that the house looking building is in fact a small pump-house but I might be wrong. Our path in facts goes across the top of the dam wall just to the right of where I stand.

Have a good day.

I love your point of view on this one Herb! The wild and open countryside around the reservoir looks beautiful. I'm not in this group, as benches and fences are enough for me to find each week....but I wish you HWW anyway ;-))
Cheers, Rosa.
