Craig Goch reservoir, the uppermost of the Elan Valley reservoirs in mid-Wales, UK.
The Craig Goch Dam, often called the Top dam, is a masonry dam in the Elan Valley which creates the upper-most of the Elan Valley Reservoirs. Construction began in 1897, and was completed in 1904. The Elan Valley reservoirs supply Birmingham with water. In 1997, a 480 kW hydroelectric generator began operation at the dam.
