The Devil's Gate Dam is part of the Mersey-Forth Hydro Power scheme, situated at the lower end of Lake Barrington - it was commissioned in 1969 and even now is quite a sight.


From time to time the Dam overflows, I missed it last year but next time I'm going to get there.

According to the plaque on site at the dam the rock foundations are Chert, the exposed rock faces on the road leading down to the dam are quite intriguing.
