    Llyn Clywedog is a man made reservoir built between 1965 and 1967 to help regulate the flow of water in the Severn. It's also used to reduce the risk of flooding up and downstream.
    Amusing comparison but the lake holds the equivalent of 264 billion glasses of water or 550 million baths.
    The area around the lake is a well kept habitat for many birds and animals including recent visits from ospreys. The lake is well stocked with trout and a popular fishing destination.
