More about this scene
1965 saw the completion of this dam, which has made Llyn Clywedog Reservoir a nature lover's delight. The reservoir provides drinking water for consumers from Llanidloes to Bristol. At 72m, this it is the highest concrete dam in the UK, and was also intended to control the flow of water into the River Severn to help prevent flooding. The amount of water held back by the dam can apparently supply 555 million baths!
