7 September 2018. Ripponden, Yorkshire. The Yorkshire Water operated Baitings Reservoir is less than 2 miles from the United Utilities owned Blackstone Edge Rservoir in Littleborough in neighbouring Lancashire The 1950s built reservoir, which opened in 1957, and took 10 years to contruct the Baitings dam. The reservoir was quite full during the summer, but levels have now dropped considerably, exposing large areas of sand, silt and unstable soft mud despite plenty of rain during August and September. The modern road bridge across the shallow end of the reservoir is now exposed considerably, and a much earlier stone built bridge across the reservoir has now been totally exposed, despite normally being under several metres of water- see dog walker. All shots of children have been cleared for publication with parents. Pictures by Phil Taylor Tel 07947 390596
