Lisvane Reservoir

Lisvane Reservoir at Lisvane, Cardiff, south Wales is one of several reservoirs constructed as part of the Taff Fawr scheme for supplying water to Cardiff, completed in 1886.

It is adjacent to Llanishen Reservoir[1] and forms part of the Nant Fawr Corridor from the top of Roath Park to the countryside beyond Cyncoed.

[2] On 30 August 2013, CELSA Group bought both Llanishen and Lisvane reservoirs from their owner Western Power Distribution, to assure its Cardiff rod mill plant a consistent supply of water.

[4] In July 2023, the Llanishen and Lisvane reservoirs were fully reopened to the public.

Redevelopment works at the site included the construction of a two-storey visitor centre and restaurant, nature trails, and bird hides.
