    Lower Laithe Reservoir was created by damming Sladen Beck and was finished in 1925, after delays due to World War 1. It was built to created a better water supply for Keighley and its surrounds.

    It was often previously called Sladen Valley Reservoir and its creation flooded the hamlet of Smith Bank, which featured in Halliwell Sutcliffe's book 'A Man of the Moors'.
