Positioned on a spur extending into Blakeley Reservoir, just off
the Kirklees Way.
A short detour off the Kirkless Way track is well worth it for a
visit to this fantastic overlook of Blakeley Reservoir.
The cache sits on top of a prominent spur, separated from the main
slope by a deep stream.

on 1854 O.S. map), followed by Wessenden Head built 1877-1881, work
