@John - is it wastewater (presumably a polite term for sewerage) of is it part of the water supply?

It's part of the water supply MartinR.  It reads like it's the main supply for Tunbridge Wells.

You have it Beachbum.  Over to you...

There's quite an impressive Water Treatment Plant at one end.  The reservoir is fed by the Alder Stream which flows to the River Medway.  It's prone to cause flooding in the Five Oak Green area at times.

Not far from a large town and even closer to a village on the edge of that town.
