In March 2017 a group of conservation volunteers celebrated the planting of their 1000th oak tree sapling around the reservoir. The work took about four years, 250 trees were planted each year. This has brought the total number of trees at Scammonden to over 80000, in 1971 there were less than half this number. The Tree Planter sculpture by Mike Disley was wholly funded by Yorkshire Water and recognises the contribution of all those who have planted trees in the past, present and those that will do so in the future There are other sculptures by the same artist at intervals along the 3 miles walk around the reservoir.

Scammonden Water is a haven of peace and tranquillity. It is located in West Yorkshire and supplies about 200,000 people in Huddersfield with fresh water. It's a great spot to stop and rest your legs, where you can enjoy a picnic on the banks. Do keep in mind however that swimming is not permitted here.

A Grade II listed building, this is the former shooting lodge for Lord Savile built in the 1850s. It's now in private ownership.

Scammonden Water is a reservoir owned and managed by Yorkshire Water. The dam that holds the reservoir back carries the M62 motorway. It's the only structure like this in the UK where the road and water companies worked together on a joint project. The reservoir and dam was made using the clay cut from further down the road route. The reservoir was completed in 1969 and the road opened in 1970. The valley flooded Deanhead Village and the surrounding area. The church and vicarage survived. The vicarage is now the sailing club.
