About Ardsley Reservoir
Sometimes known as Tingley Reservoir, East West Ardsley Reservoir or West Ardsley Reservoir due to its location between Tingley, Woodkirk, and East Ardsley, Ardsley Reservoir is one of Yorkshire Water's many reservoirs. Looking out over Emley Moor, at 120 acres it is used to provide the area with drinking water, as well as the nearby Coca Cola plant.
The reservoir is unusual as it is not fed by rivers and streams, rather it holds water delivered from other sources. The water has travelled sometimes as far as Ripponden and Barnsley!
If you are looking to drive and park near Ardsley Reservoir, we recommend using the free car park onsite. The postcode is WF3 1EE, then is is only a short walk to the reservoir.
