Aston Reservoir, sometimes known as Salford Lake, Salford Park Pool or Salford Bridge Reservoir, is a 19th-century reservoir, formerly used for drinking water extracted from the River Tame,〔(The History of South Staffordshire Waterworks Company, 1853 - 1989 ) - Johann Van Leerzem, Brian Williams〕 in Birmingham, England. It was built by the Birmingham Waterworks Company〔 and was at that time situated in the parish of Aston.〔 On 1 January 1876 the company was purchased by Birmingham Corporation Water Department. More recently, it has been a boating lake, although this is no longer the case. In the 1950s it was used for speedboat racing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BIRMINGHAM'S OUTBOARD MEETING - British Pathe )〕 The area around the reservoir is used as a park, Salford Park. It sits immediately adjacent to Gravelly Hill Interchange, and in a bend of the river. == References ==
