Summary[edit]

Description
English: Reaps Water below Gorple Upper Reservoir. This clough lies between the Upper and Lower reservoirs. The dam of Gorple Upper Reservoir can be seen to the top right.The reservoirs were constructed between 1927 and 1934. The piles of stone in the centre seem to be the bases of piers which would have carried a bridge over the clough during construction. The remains of several other piers are found just out of sight to bottom left. I presume this would have been a trestle bridge to carry a tramway, perhaps something similar to that at Blake Dean 270422, used in the constructed of the Walshaw Dean reservoirs a few years previously, albeit on a much smaller scale.
