Concrete pillar, beside the A672 at Booth Moor Reservoir
Probably used in the construction of the reservoir and after to check the stability of the dam, there is another one on the other side of the valley in alignment with the top of the dam, there is another one at the dam base. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/938440

Lane at Booth Wood
This lane leads to a cluster of houses which used to be farm buildings. I think these houses are regarded as an outflung part of the village of Booth Wood.

Plaques for Booth Wood Reservoir, Rishworth
This next to the entrance to the roadway over the dam (footpath only). This is a long way from Wakefield, but the big towns and cities had to find a suitable site that had not already been used. By 1971 there were not many sites left!
