	Holly Hill Reservoir Reservoirs store treated water. This 'reserve' ensures that an adequate water supply is always available, including times when water demand is high (typically in the morning when everyone is getting ready for work and school and in the evening when everyone returns home). Reservoirs are generally located on hills or other points of elevation higher than the homes and businesses they serve; this allows the water to flow by gravity from the reservoir to your tap. Pumping water up to the City's reservoirs requires almost €1m of electricity each year, so conserving water can also help reduce energy use.	Holly Hill

	Lady's Well, Watercourse Road Ancient holy well, once renovated by Murphy's Brewery and reputedly the water supply for their beer.

If you walk towards Blackpool along the Watercourse Road you will see a sign to the well that used to take you up a flight of steps with the stations of the cross, they are now blocked off so you have to go to the next flight of steps and turn right at the first opening behind the brewery.

	Well under the Flyover, Pouladuff Almost directly under the bridge at the place where the Pouladuff road, the South link road and for good measure, a pylon all intersect, on the north bank of the Tramore River is a concrete box with a pipe coming out of it from which water gushes with heartening vigour. An inscription on the box tells us that this is All Saint's Well and I was very glad to find it here still flowing strong despite all the indignities that we have heaped upon it's space. I feel it's important that people keep visiting these natural water sources and account for them. We may need them again. I've added my contact details here in case anyone wants to get in touch who's similarly interested in the work of looking after them	Walk South over the Road bridge towards the roundabout. before you get to it on yr left there's a footpath down the side of Core House. Go down there then turn left again at the road. Turn left again past the council yard onto the river footpath, over the bridge then head upstream about 10 paces, well will be at your feet.
