Llanwonno forest reservoir: Anger as beauty spot water drained

Some local people said they did not know much about the work being carried out on the reservoir.

Savannah Fecht, from nearby Pontypridd, said: “It’s surprising to me that there wasn’t any interest in preserving it as some sort of historical site. It didn’t feel like the community were told that it was happening.”

Welsh Water said it planned to turn the reservoir into a natural lake again as Clydach reservoir has not been used to supply drinking water since 2004.

The company said: “We still have a lot of work to do in developing the plans, which we will share with the local community once they are complete.

“We would also like to reassure the local community that protecting the wildlife on site is a priority for us.

“We engaged with Natural Resources Wales before we commenced the draining of the reservoir, and we will continue to engage with them as we develop the plans for the work.”
