Full Description
{1} Reservoirs were built to provide water either for canals or for domestic and industrial purposes. Naseby Reservoir was constructed in 1821 but significantly enlarged by the raising of the dam in 1837. Some boating still takes place at Naseby. There is a ruined brick lodge, an old wooden summerhouse complete with veranda, a crumbling timber open-sided boathouse and a decayed wooden clubhouse, all in the north-west corner.
