Roundhill Reservoir was built for
Harrogate Corporation. It was completed in 1913, at a cost of £500,000. In 1908, while Roundhill was being constructed,
Leeds Corporation began building
Leighton Reservoir close by. Both reservoirs impounded the water from Pott Beck: Harrogate was permitted by Parliament to take no more than 4 million gallons per day, the rest going to Leeds. The reservoir later was under the jurisdiction of the
Claro Water Board. == References ==
