New visitor attraction for Tameside
Waterworks - the latest addition to Tameside Council's museum and galleries portfolio - has been officially opened in Ashton-under-Lyne, Lancashire.
The attraction, which will be an add-on to Setantii - tales of Tameside at Ashton Town Hall, examines the developments that helped shape the future of water sanitisation, including the Longdendale reservoirs. Visitors will have the opportunity to experience Tameside life dating back to the early 19th century, while exact replicas of John Frederick Bateman's plans for the reservoirs also form part of the exhibits.
A life-size model of the Mottram tunnel, which carries water from the Longdendale reservoirs to Manchester, and the chance to take part in the original parliamentary debate into Bateman's scheme of 1847 also feature. Tameside Council leader Roy Oldham said: "The story of the Longdendale reservoirs is important to tell, and one which many people may never have thought about."
