  • Das Howden Reservoir ist ein Stausee am nördlichen Ende des Derwent Valley, das zum Teil in Derbyshire und zum Teil in South Yorkshire in England liegt. Der Stausee hat die Form eines "Y" und der längste Arm ist knapp 2 km lang. Die Grenze zwischen den beiden Counties läuft mitten durch den See entlang des Verlaufs des ursprünglichen Flusses. Der Baubeginn des Stausees war am 16. Juli 1901 und die Fertigstellung war im Juli 1912. Am südlichen Mauer befindet sich eine vollständig gemauerte Staumauer, die 36 m hoch und 330 m lang ist. Der Hauptzufluss des Stausees ist der Derwent, kleinere Zuflüsse sind der , der und der . Der Derwent verlässt den Stausee an dessen südlichem Ende und geht sofort in das Derwent Reservoir über. * Die Howden Staumauer * Die Howden Staumauer * Die Howden Staumauer (de)

Other tributaries include the River Westend, and . Work commenced on the dam's construction on 16 July 1901 and completed in July 1912. The chief engineer was Edward Sandeman. He was also in charge of building nearby Derwent dam and was awarded the Telford Medal in 1918 for his work "Derwent Valley Waterworks". The works involved constructing a temporary village at Birchinlee, or "Tin Town", for the workers, a temporary railway line from the main line at Bamford, construction of a link aqueduct to the Derwent Dam. The dam is of solid masonry construction, and 117 ft (36 m) tall, 1,080 ft (330 m) long, and impounds 1,900,000 imp gal (8,600 kl) of water, from a catchment area of 5,155 acres (2,086 ha). The workers who died during the construction of the dam were buried in St John the Baptist's Church, Bamford. To the east of the reservoir stands Featherbed Moss, one of the highest tops in the area at 1,788 ft (545 m), and one of several tops of that name in the area. This is not to be confused with the more well-known Featherbed Moss on the Pennine Way between Kinder Scout and Bleaklow.
