Dam which is shown on map of Jefferys' Survey (1767-1770) (Umpleby 2000,101). Its construction date is unknown as is the original use of the dam. In 1809 the dam was bought by Walter Spencer Stanhope to increase the water supply to Pot House Mill in Silkstone (HSY6319) (ibid,108). The dam survives well and is now reused for fishing.
