Lifford Reservoir in the Kings Norton district of Birmingham, England was built by the Worcester & Birmingham Canal company in 1815 to compensate Lifford Mill for water lost to the canal.[1] It is located at the junction of the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal and the Worcester and Birmingham Canal and is on the River Rea Cycle Route. Angling is permitted subject to a charge outside the spring close season.[2] Fish in the reservoir include tench, carp, pike, eels, perch, roach and bream.[3]

Its capacity is 68,190 m3 (89,190 cu yd), retained by an earthfill dam.[4]
