Path, around the north end of Ovenden Moor, descending a moorland slope with sheep towards Warley Moor Reservoir, north of Hlaifax, West Yorkshire. Warley Moor Reservoir (also known as Fly Flatts Reservoir) was completed in 1872. The reservoir has an area of 28 hectares, is 14 metres (45 feet) deep and holds up to 880, 000, 000 litres (193, 000, 000 imperial gallons) of water. The reservoir, at an altitude of 410 metres (1345 feet), is the home of the Halifax Sailing Club, the highest sailing club in England. Originally built by the Halifax Corporation, the reservoir is now owned by Yorkshire Water. The path descends to the Cold Edge Road, crossing the moors between Halifax and Oxenhope.
