Originally known as the Tytam Intermediate Reservoir, it was constructed between 1904 and 1908 according to PWD Reports of those years. Additionally, "for dam safety reasons, the north section of the spillway has been lowered in 1977, resulting in today's indented appearance of the crest of the dam" ( www.aab.gov.hk/form/AAB138-14-B-eng.pdf ).
