헐랜드 와드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The crossing was flooded. From the direction I arrived at the crossing, I had to use some of the bigger stones as stepping stones to get to main part of the crossing.

Planning for the reservoir started in the 1960s and construction started in 1979. In 1984, there was a partial collapse of the dam before it was filled. The dam was removed before the construction of a new dam began in 1989. The finished reservoir was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1992.

A warm sanctuary on a cold day... Sit behind the glass, watching the water. 🌊

Nice enclosed watching space with heating. A good shelter on a rough day.

This tower was initially a mystery to us, but we later discovered that it houses the pumping system for the water. It also looks quite cool floating on the water.

Nice little centre to find out more about the area

The right turn that leads up to this section from the lane is not clear. There is an unsigned field gate to a grassy field with no defined track and may have cows. Follow the crest hedge row going up the field, you may have to walk rather than cycle, until you reach "Peacock Gate" and the route becomes visible again. If going down through Peacock Gate follow the hedgerow down the field until you reach the gate that opens on to the lane.
