Abstract:		 AOC Archaeology Group was commissioned by Jacobs on behalf of Severn Trent Water to undertake an historic building survey of the 1904 reservoir and associated outlet houses and inlet house in advance of planned works on the Birmingham Resilience Project. The Frankley Water Treatment Works was constructed between 1896 and 1904 to distribute a clean water supply for the population of the City of Birmingham from the Elan Valley. The main reservoir to the north-west of the new complex was built in concrete with a brick skin and parapet wall, in a semi-circular shape and a capacity for holding 200,000,000 imperial gallons. The two outlet houses to the north-west of the reservoir were built identically in red brick with sandstone detailing, although the lead conical roof of the north-easternmost oulet house was removed and not replaced in the 1970s. To the centre of these two buildings is a smaller rectangular inlet house, also in red brick with sandstone detailing and a flat roof.
