Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yarrow Reservoir - named after its tributary, the River Yarrow - is the newest reservoir in the whole Rivington chain in Lancashire, England, and has a storage capacity second only to Anglezarke Reservoir. In 2002, several tons of fish were transported to this reservoir when the Upper Rivington reservoir was completely drained for essential maintenance work. The construction of the reservoir was described in Wm. Fergusson Irvine''s book "A Short History Of The Township Of Rivington." Once a suitable site for the embankment was selected a trench was excavated on the centre line of the intended work and carried down to the solid rock across the full width of the valley. This was then filled with clay deposited in 9 inch (230mm) layers and carefully compacted to produce a homogenous watertight material. This was continued through the embankment, which was also built up in thin layers.
