Ladybower's Western Bellmouth Drain (Plughole) with Bamford Edge Above

Ladybower's Western Bellmouth Drain (Plughole) with Bamford Edge Above

Ladybower's dam wall is to the south of the reservoir and towards each end is a bellmouth drain, known colloquially as Plugholes. These are for overflow protection, so only come into use following heavy rainfall. Above the reservoir is Bamford Edge, which provides a spectacular viewpoint for those able to make the climb.
