"Unwilling to share their water, the Trent and Mersey‘s surplus was siphoned off at an overflow weir and secretly channeled beneath the Swan Inn and behind the neighbouring cottages, before returning to the Trent & Mersey Canal to the east of the junction. The excess water was stored in a purpose built reservoir which now forms the central feature of the award winning Fradley Pool Nature Reserve."
