History
The reservoir, which is around 435 meters long, was built by John Laing & Son in around 1900.[1] It involved damming the River Ellen above Uldale to provide water for Aspatria and Silloth.[1] It is named after Chapelhouse Farm which is close by and it is owned by United Utilities.[2]
gollark: Conceptual bees?
gollark: No, the person responsible for its *containment* is stopped anomalously by the "narf".
gollark: Did you READ the SCP?
gollark: You cannot SUMMON "big narf".
gollark: > Merely adding the phrase “BIG NARF” to the description of an upcoming event does not cause its cancellation, in significant tests by GCN-12 to date. Only additions of the phrase “BIG NARF” spontaneously by no observed mechanism or party appear to trigger SCP-2939. The phrase “BIG NARF,” then, is currently considered to be a ‘calling card’ for the events rather than a self-propagating memetic hazard in and of itself.
