Combs Crags

Highlight • Viewpoint

Combs Crags are a gritstone outcrop on Low Ash Head Moor. A curious rock formation, and amongst the rocks is a shooting hut. The views from above to the north - over Roundhill and Leighton Reservoirs and further to Colsterdale and its moors: phenomenal!

Roundhill Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

Roundhill Reservoir was built to supply water to Harrogate and construction was finished in 1911. It occupies a lonely and beautifully desolate spot on the moors to the west of Masham and is smaller than neighbouring Leighton Reservoir. An intriguing stone tower stands proudly on the moorland above the reservoir. This is a sighting tower that was used to triangulate the end points of a water tunnel that ran from here to Harrogate.
