Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Underground Reservoir. Several of these rusty metallic spouts, rising from the heather and bracken of the surrounding moorland, are the only clues betraying the subterranean reservoir which lies underneath. It was built in the late 1800s to supply drinking water to Ilkley. The purpose of the overground pipes is presumably to allow oxygenation of the water. There is an article on the Yorkshire Evening Post website - http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/Unusual-Ilkley-home-for-sale.4439770.jp - about a now-decommissioned pumping station on the edge of the town which was built to serve this reservoir. The building can be seen in the distance of this image - https://www.flickr.com/photos/tjblackwell/3436076294/
