The Search for Lost Secrets - Ladybower Reservoir - Ashopton

Ladybower Reservoir & The Ghosts of a Drowned Village - Ashopton

Join me as i visit Ladybower Reservoir to uncover more lost secrets of the lost Hamlet of Ashopton. Drowned to the waters of Ladybower shortly after construction of the dam & reservoir.

I begin by taking a look at one of the famous plugholes, before heading off to find remains of the village road, Wood Lane, that once fed the main Ashopton Hamlet.

Next up is a look at the original Ladybower Bridge, still standing but well hidden and out of sight to most.

Finally we get below Ashopton Viaduct, taking a look at where certain buildings once stood and remembering what once was.

All this in addition to comparison maps from 1900 and present day.
