If this site is in (modern) Cheshire, and Ley seems invariably correct in these matters, the site must be at the very tip of the reservoir

I don't understand your query. Using the grid ref look-up function the whole of the Todbrook reservoir is in VC58

Blimey, confusing or what? I'm looking at various maps and the town & reservoir are in VC57 Derbyshire, apart from a spot called Taxal to the south - but it was a trivial point for me to have put on the message board, and I may be confused anyway!
