Carsington Water is a reservoir operated by Severn Trent Water located between Wirksworth and Kniveton in Derbyshire, England. The reservoir takes water from the River Derwent at Ambergate during winter months, pumping up to the reservoir by 10.5-kilometre (6.5 mi) long tunnels and aqueduct. Water is released back into the river during summer months for water abstraction and treatment further downstream. It is England's ninth-largest reservoir with a capacity of 36,331 megalitres.[1]

  • Carsington Water is a reservoir operated by Severn Trent Water located between Wirksworth and Kniveton in Derbyshire, England. The reservoir takes water from the River Derwent at Ambergate during winter months, pumping up to the reservoir by 10.5-kilometre (6.5 mi) long tunnels and aqueduct. Water is released back into the river during summer months for water abstraction and treatment further downstream. It is England's ninth-largest reservoir with a capacity of 36,331 megalitres.[1] Planning for the reservoir started in the 1960s and construction started in 1979. In 1984 there was a partial collapse of the dam before it was filled. The dam was removed before the construction of a new dam began in 1989. The finished reservoir was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1992. The reservoir is a major centre for leisure activities including walking, cycling, fly fishing, birdwatching, sailing, canoeing, and windsurfing. The land surrounding the reservoir, in particular the facilities around the visitor centre, has hosted events including a music festival, the Festival of the Peak. (en)
  • Il bacino idrico Carsington è un bacino idrico della Severn Trent plc nello Derbyshire. Riceve acqua dal fiume Derwent durante i mesi invernali, raggiungendo il bacino grazie a gallerie ed acquedotti lunghi 10,5 chilometri. L'acqua viene rilasciata nel fiume durante i mesi estivi per estrazione e trattamento più giù a valle. È il nono, per dimensioni, bacino dell'Inghilterra con una capacità di 35.412 megalitri. I lavori di progettazione iniziarono negli anni '60 mentre la costruzione ebbe inizio nel 1979. Nel 1984 ci fu un collasso parziale dello sbarramento anteriore a causa del suo riempimento. Lo sbarramento fu successivamente completamente rimosso prima della costruzione della nuova diga cominciata nel 1989. Il bacino fu terminato e messo in funzione dalla regina Elisabetta II nel 1992. Il bacino è uno dei più importanti centri ricreativi (camminare, andare in bici, osservazione di uccelli, navigazione e windsurf). (it)
