Ewden Village built from timber to house navvies engaged in the construction of the nearby Morehall and Broomhead Reservoirs. The village originally included a church, bowling green, play area, cricket pitch, rec. hut, dance and concert hall. Some residents had previously been engaged on the Derwent and Howden reservoir projects and were relocated from the similar village of 'Birchinlee' on its demolition. (Duffield 2004). 6 semi detached houses survive to the present day, significant and rare survivals of an early 20th century navvy settlement. A similar and related site has been surveyed and published at 'Birchinlee' by Bevan (2001) but this site is now completely depopulated. Field boundaries retained although much of the area has reverted to scrub and woodland so legibility is partial.
