Water runs off the great whaleback of Pendle Hill, cascading down Ogden Clough and Boar Clough to reach the Ogden Reservoirs. Built to supply drinking water to nearby Nelson, the trails around the reservoirs are a delight and are often explored by those on the way up Pendle Hill. There are three plantations here too, including Fell Wood, with its spruces, pines and larches.
