Carsington Reservoir
Starting to Fill Carsington for the First Time
October 1991 -The Valve Tower is seen with water pumped up from the River Derwent at Ambergate. Another outlet is just visible above, but a lower one was buried by the reprofiled embankment. The outlet is shown to the right with a protection dome. I believe all except the buried Outlet can used as inlets and outlet. HRH Queen Elizabeth II opened Carsington on the 22 October 2022.
