Blagdon Lake lies in a valley at the northern edge of the Mendip Hills, close to the village of Blagdon and approximately 10 miles (16 km) south of Bristol, England. The lake was created by Bristol Water (Bristol Waterworks Company as it was known then), when it dammed the River Yeo, starting construction in 1898, to designs by Charles Hawksley, and completing this in 1905. The Wrington Vale Light Railway was constructed primarily to bring building materials for the lake.

On the edge of SSI, plenty of birds around the lake, so one to be mindful of.

Barrow Gurney Reservoirs (grid reference ST5468) (also known as Barrow Gurney Tanks or Barrow Tanks) are three artificial reservoirs for drinking water near the village of Barrow Gurney, which lies southwest of Bristol, England. They are known by their numbers rather than names.

They are fed by several springs including one which becomes the Land Yeo. Some of the outfall is also used to feed the river which flows to the Bristol Channel.

The Tanks are right on the border of Bristol airport no fly zone.
Parking on the A38 is not practical so TOAL was Dundry Lane.

Erected in 1932, Tilehurst Water Tower, is an iconic landmark on the ridge line in Tilehurst, a district in the Western part of Reading. People from Reading know they are near home when they are coming along the M4 from the West and they can see the top of the tower, several miles before they get to Junction 12.

In November 2018 the tower was illuminated in poppy red to mark 100 years since the end of the First World War. The tower remained illuminated, and visible at night from a wide area, until Remembrance Day on 11 November.

It still fulfils its function as a water tower today, and at the top it also houses a number of telephone masts and receivers and also the transmitter for Greatest Hits Radio Berkshire & North Hampshire, a local radio station.

The tower holds a huge 900,000 litres of water, in two 4.5 metre deep tanks and provides around 10 per cent all the water used in Reading, serving 12,000 homes and businesses.
