Yorkshire Water

 As part of our Geography topic, we visited the Water Treatment Works at Headingley to discover how water is treated to make it safe for us to drink.  We also visited the Esholt Waste Water Treatment works to discover how water from the sewers is treated to make it safe to return to the environment.

The huge pipe which brings in water to be treated from Eccup reservoir.
