General notes
The riders are on road which passes between the two Coldwell reservoirs. Coldwell Upper, (opened 1935) and Coldwell Lower (opened 1884) before passing the former Coldwell Inn. Originally a farm, the building became an inn with the development of the packhorse routes across the moors to Halifax. By the early 20th century the inn was notorious for illegal cockfighting and associated gambling activity. The inn closed in 1939 and lay derelict until 1985 when it was redeveloped as an activity centre for disabled youngsters.
