Fruid is a small reservoir in the Scottish Borders, close to the better-known Talla Reservoir. It measures 140 hectares and together with Talla forms the water supply for Edinburgh City. The construction was completed in 1968, and like many man-made reservoirs, several properties were destroyed in the flooding of the valley.
