More about this scene

Chasewater was built as a canal feeder in 1800; it was so efficient that its owners, Wyrley and Essington Canal Company, sold surplus water to other companies. Just after it was built, the dam gave way, pouring torrents of water across the countryside nearly as far as Tamworth. It was rebuilt and faced with stone, and remains watertight to this day.
