Dowdeswell Reservoir

About

Dowdeswell Reservoir is in the parish of Dowdeswell in Gloucestershire. The former water treatment works are in the parish of Charlton Kings. Thus they span the parish boundaries. They were originally built by Cheltenham Corporation to supply the town of Cheltenham with drinking water in 1886 and subsequently became part of the Severn Trent network.
