The reservoir is a non-impounding reservoir and is retained by an earth fill embankment with puddle clay core approximately I10.8m high and 2,700m long. The reservoir has a stated capacity of 4,191,000m3 and a surface area of 489,700m2, when full to its top water level of 17.59m AOD. For a number of years signs of leakages were observed. Leaks were suspected, but there was no direct information about the depth and location. Hence there would be high degree of uncertainty that any solution was dealing with the problem and not making it worse. There were operational restrictions on the reservoir which was run at a lower top water level and with enhanced surveillance (visual and surveyed) to pick up any movement/change in conditions. Within this project the problematic areas were identified and a combination of silent/pressed piling, from plant mounted on the water was used. The project was delivered by the eight2O joint venture, working for Thames Water.
