King Edward VII's Visit to the New Birmingham Waterworks in Elan Valley, Powys, Wales, 1904 This historic photograph captures a significant moment in the history of Birmingham's water supply system. The image shows King Edward VII, the seventh monarch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, making an official visit to the newly constructed Birmingham Waterworks in the Elan Valley of Powys, Wales. The King is seen standing on a platform, surrounded by members of the Birmingham Corporation Water Department and local dignitaries, all dressed in formal attire and waving Union Jack flags. In the background, a steam train and railway tracks can be seen, indicating the remote location of the waterworks and the means by which the royal party arrived. The Birmingham Corporation Water Department had been working on the Elan Valley project since the late 1890s, with the aim of providing clean drinking water to the growing city of Birmingham in the West Midlands of England. The Elan Valley reservoirs, which include the famous dams of Caban Coch, Garwdu, and Felin Fach, were a major engineering feat of the time and remain an important source of water for the city to this day. King Edward VII's visit to the Elan Valley waterworks was a significant milestone in the project's history, marking the completion of the construction phase and signaling the beginning of the water's supply to Birmingham. The image serves as a testament to the importance of the waterworks to the city and the role of the monarchy in the official opening of major public works projects in early 20th century Britain.
