Middle Witton Reservoir
The western-most of the two lakes near Short Heath, the other being Image, and the third being Image which was formerly known as Lower Witton Reservoir. All were created around the middle of the 19th century by the City Corporation to provide a water supply to Brum, at a time when the streams feeding them ran through clean agricultural land. When that ceased to be the case, the Victorians piped water into the city from mid Wales (the Elan Valley complex) and the old reservoirs are now a wildfowl reserve and boating amenity.
