This is a flood reservoir, so presumably it is normally empty. It is about 180 metres long and about 70 metres wide. The trackbed of the former Hemel Hempstead to Harpenden railway, the Nicky Line, is just beyond the high bank to the right. The local government boundary between the Dacorum and St Albans council areas runs left to right across the middle of the reservoir.
