Just beyond where the water first leaves the reservoir it becomes a mass of rusty looking channels and ponds, almost like some inhospitable primeval landscape. I have no idea what the function of the building might be, though I wonder whether the state of the land might have had something to do with the mining which used to take place in the area.
