Witton Lakes are a pair of former drinking water reservoirs between the Perry Common and Erdington areas of Birmingham, England. Two brooks, arising at Kingstanding and Bleak Hill, Erdington, respectively, feed first Witton Lakes, then overspill into Brookvale Park Lake, before reaching the River Tame, and eventually the Humber and the North Sea.
