Daysbrook Road Reservoir, like so many smaller reservoirs in inner London, is covered over. It was originally constructed in 1832 by the Lambeth Water Company. This is the view looking through the gate from Daysbrook Road. The impressive block of flats beyond is Pullman Court on Streatham Hill which was built in the second half of the 1930s.
