If only the reeds and birdlife that live along the Upper Rivington reservoir could talk. They would tell you about the warm, attractive summer days and blossoming spring flowers and buds. Digs around the Rivington area have revealed Stone Age flints, knives, and animal bones—remnants of the hundreds of lives that have chosen to call this area of outstanding natural beauty their home.
