en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brent_Reservoir

The Brent Reservoir (popularly called the Welsh Harp) is a reservoir which straddles the boundary between the London boroughs of Brent and Barnet and is owned by British Waterways. The reservoir takes its informal name from a public house called The Welsh Harp, which stood nearby until the early 1970s.
The reservoir is fed by the Silk Stream and the River Brent, and its outflow is the River Brent.
