Modern reservoir. Construction date 1975 from www.ywsonline.co.uk/web/RecDist.nsf/Winscar?openpage (13/09/2004). Previously mixed coniferous / deciduous wooded valley with small post-medieval sandstone quarries, no visibility of this in current landscape so legibility is invisible. The origin of the former moorland landscape is uncertain though this area is likely to be moorland by the Roman period (see Bevan 2003 for discussion of environmental evidence in region).
