Of late years, much labour has been bestowed in making all these parts more abrupt and difficult, yet it is still necessary to watch them, as there are always some hardy adventurers who will wantonly risk their lives down these perilous cliffs, either in attempting to desert or in search of flowers." 204: 1854: 1878: 1890: 75: 1866: 322:
the catchment area increased to 24 acres (97,000 m). By 1961 the total catchment area had increased to its maximum of 34 acres (140,000 m). It took roughly 5,928 rafters, 1,112 purlins, 1,161 piles, 5,928 sheets, 2,920 kg of screws and 850 kg of washers for every hectare of the Great Dune that was covered.

began with the construction of four 5,000,000 imperial gallons (23,000,000 L) reservoirs cut inside the western side of the Rock at an elevation of 103.6 metres (340 ft) above sea level, each being 60.96 metres (200.0 ft) long 15.24 metres (50.0 ft) high and with an average width

As Gibraltar's population and demand for a fresh water supply increased, further sources of supply were required and a scheme to expand the system was proposed and carried out. This consisted of the construction of a 40,000 square metres (4.0 ha)
