(HD) Chew Valley Lake , North Somerset. Mon 22nd July 2013.

))))))))))))))))))) Best in 1080 Full Screen ((((((((((((((((((((((((

On the last day of my July weeks holiday we take a drive up to Chew Valley Lake in the beautiful Chew Valley. To the north of the lake in under 5 miles is the City of Bristol via Dundry Hill, and 10 miles to the west is Bristol Airport. The Mendip Hills leading to Cheddar Gorge are to the South.
The lake which provides drinking water for Bristol is the 5th largest man-made lake in the Country. It was opened on the 17th April 1956, a month i know well.... after being constructed for several years by Bristol Waterworks Company. In the making they had to flood the old hamlet of Moreton, which apparently was a thriving community in the Middle Ages. Excavations some time back revealed this and also possibly the remains of the Nunnery Santa Cruz.
Most of the water comes from the nearby Mendip Hills to the south. We stopped for lunch at the Tea rooms at the north of the lake,and a bit later we drive round to the west side to go to Woodford Lodge. At Woodford it is a bit quieter, and where some of the best views of the lake can be had. They have a very nice restaurant which overlooks the lake, where we sampled a Pear and Honey crumble with custard.....highly excellent !! That's the waistline gone again....ha ha. The final 2 clips are taken at the south-western end of the lake and again i have problems with what i can see to film....bright concrete for starters lol.
The lake is used for a variety of leisure pursuits, including fishing, yachting, nature trail, bird watching etc etc. I can thoroughly recommend a visit here if your ever in the area; for us it was a lovely way to finish time-out !!!
