    The Plughole in the Peak District that you may not know about?
    Ladybower Reservoir and the overflowing plugholes are the dominant talking poit when it comes to the Reservoirs of the Peak District. But did you know nearby there is in fact a third plughole?
    Smaller in size but on a wet day could be equally as terrifying.
    I begin my hunt for this elusive third plughole heading up the vally alongside a fast flowing rocky stream away from the Rivelin Reservoirs in search of the 3 Redmires Reservoirs. Taking a walk around all 3 reservoirs i head up to the top to discover the third plughole in the Peaks.

    If the overflow from a reservoir goes into a culvert or large pipeline then these circular or possibly multi sided shapes like an octagon are used the one at Errwood in the Goyt valley is similar but it also houses a tower which presumably goes down to the lowest outlet to control the flow into the lower Fernilee reservoir at times when the upper reservoir is to dry for the overflow to be in use. The Fernilee dam istself has a single tower int the dam which has a shaft which goes down to a series of filter and chlorination water treatment rooms actually built inside the dam. I visited it on a school trip in the 1960s when Errwood was being constructed. It was a very scary climb down a lot of vertical ladders.

    Near the lower of the Redmires reservoirs, in the woods, there's actually an underground reservoir. Just next to it there are (was) some abandoned waterworks buildings that can (could) be accessed. One of the buildings houses all sorts of old pumping equipment etc. Its a few years now since I was working around there and found it by accident. So may have all changed, but a great place to explore. Thanks for the great video. How you manage to stand on the slipway without slipping i do not know!
