Millbrook Reservoir

South Australia, Australia

The Millbrook Dam is an off-stream earth-filled embankment dam, in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia. Completed in 1918, the resultant reservoir, the Millbrook Reservoir, was built to supply potable water to Adelaide's eastern suburbs and to control water flows in the upper River Torrens. The dam and reservoir were named after the small town of Millbrook, that was demolished and removed during construction.
