Welcome to Angram Reservoir

Angram Reservoir is a stunning man-made lake located in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. The reservoir was built in the early 20th century to supply water to the city of York and has since become a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The reservoir is surrounded by rolling hills and dense forests, making it a perfect spot for hiking, cycling, and picnicking. Visitors can also enjoy fishing and boating on the lake, with permits available from the nearby village of Osmotherley.

The Angram Reservoir is home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and herons. The surrounding moors are also home to rare bird species such as the golden plover and curlew. The reservoir is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its unique flora and fauna. Visitors can take a leisurely stroll around the lake and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, or take a guided nature walk to learn more about the local wildlife.

Angram Reservoir is steeped in history and has played an important role in the development of the region. The reservoir was built in the early 1900s to supply water to the city of York, and the construction of the dam required the relocation of several local villages. Today, the reservoir is a popular spot for visitors to learn about the history of the area and the impact of the reservoir on the local community. The nearby village of Osmotherley is home to a museum dedicated to the history of the reservoir and the surrounding moors, providing visitors with a fascinating insight into the region's past.
