Reservoir

We have disovered this brick, circular water storage reservoir beneath early (eighteenth century) buildings on the Wednesbury Forge site.

View of the half-sectioned feature.









Our excavations are now nearing their end. However we will return in a couple of weeks to further explore the area of the 'windmill' and associated features. The aim will be to sample below the eighteenth century features to see if the tantalising remains of earlier structures do indeed survive.
