Surely it feeds the Caldon Canal not the Trent and Mersey, The T&M is quite a distance from it and the outflow from the lake leads to the Leek end of the Caldon  YDAM  TALK 11:32, 26 December 2006 (UTC) reply

You are correct Aidan Croft 14:55, 26 December 2006 (UTC) reply

Yes and no. It does feed into the Caldon, but the lake and the Caldon were constructed by the T&M company and the lake was intended ultimately to feed the T&M.-- Hymers2 ( talk) 15:17, 5 February 2008 (UTC) reply
