Argal Lake
In 1939, South West Water work began to dam the river to create a reservoir for public water supply. The concrete dam on Argal Lake was completed in 1941 and at full capacity, the lake holds 1.3 billion litres of water. South West Water still own Argal and College lakes but lease them to the Southwest Lakes Trust.
