Stowe and Minster Pools These pools, originally part of the Bishop's Manorial Rights, were finally transfered to the City and County of Lichfield by Elizabeth I in 1598. They were leased in perpetuity to The South Staffordshire Waterworks Company in 1855 and reconstructed and enlarged by them as their original supply reservoirs. The Pools were presented by the Company in 1969 to the City and County of Lichfield for the benefit of the Citizens of Lichfield and visitors to the City.
