The Trust maintains 70 large, raised reservoirs under the Reservoirs Act and a further 11 small, raised reservoirs, there is also a significant length of feeder channels upstream of the reservoirs and bypass channels down the side of reservoirs. These require careful vegetation management to ensure good surveillance around these features and ensuring these remain safe and features such as trees remain healthy and do not put the embankment dam at risk. We also need to keep the vegetation well maintained around the perimeter of the reservoirs to enable safe and welcoming visitor access to the Trust's property. Works expected will be grass cutting, hedge work, herbicide spraying, tree work, structure clearance works.
