Talk: Water From The Moor: Plymouth’s Water Supply

As a keen local historian, Paul Rendell – a Dartmoor National Park Guide for many years –has written many articles for newspapers, magazines and books on the Dartmoor area.

In 1991, he founded the Dartmoor News, a bi-monthly magazine that he still edits. His talk, and associated walk on Saturday 19 May, look at the history of taking water from the moors, including Burrator and Meldon Reservoirs, and Plymouth and the Devonport Leats.
