Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Tunnelling
As regards water projects, the aqueducts which supply the important cities of Liverpool and Glasgow, and which derive their supply from Lake Vyrnwy and Loch Katrine respectively, have been chosen. The new Glasgow waterworks scheme is in supersession of the original one, which has been described in an earlier edition of the book, and which has been found to be inadequate for the increased requirements of the city.
