High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rudyard Lake is a reservoir in Rudyard, Staffordshire constructed by the engineer John Rennie, for the Trent and Mersey Canal company in 1797/98 to feed the Caldon Canal. On June 26, 1846 the North Staffordshire Railway successfully took over the canal company and lake as part of one of its acts of parliament that resulted in the formation of the North Staffordshire Railway. A claim to fame is that John Lockwood Kipling and Alice Macdonald, parents of Rudyard Kipling, met here on a trip from Burslem. They liked the place so much they named their son after it. The Rudyard Lake Steam Railway runs narrow gauge steam trains that operate up the east side of the lake on many days throughout the year. Look up their website for details.
