Excess water flows over a weir and into a drain at the southern end of Cwmtillery Lakes. This body of water was formerly a feeder pond for Cwmtillery Colliery. After the colliery closed in 1982, the area was transformed into an open access nature site with a path around the lake, benches and picnic tables. Several mallards are in the foreground.
