Grimwith Reservoir - Lone Tree by Yorkshire Lad - Paul T The blue of the water I think comes from the depth of the reservoir as much of the water running into the reservoir is peaty or discoloured from ore deposits Grimwith House (now holiday cottages) can be seen in the distance It is a wild and lonely place to walk on the moors around the beautiful Grimwith Reservoir which has a good wide path (pronounced Grim'ath) There is a sailing club on the reservoir Grimwith Reservoir is located in the Yorkshire Dales (Craven District) in North Yorkshire, England between Pateley Bridge and Grassington The original reservoir was built in 1864 by the Bradford Corporation. This involved the abandonment of the hamlets of Grimwith and Gate Up, which would be flooded as part of the reservoir. Following an agreement made in 1970 the size of the reservoir was increased by seven times and the water level was raised by 20 metres (66 ft), https://flic.kr/p/2mJA1hJ -- source link
