Did You know? 

The primary reason for the major transformation of the Elan Valley was the need of the city of Birmingham (in the West Midlands, England) for a large, reliable supply of clean water in the late 19th century. 

The water travels by gravity from the Elan Valley to Birmingham: the reservoirs are about 52 m above the destination reservoir in Birmingham so no pumping is needed.

The Elan Valley  calley is also one of the the top star gazing spots in the world -
