It is located in an area of moorland overlooking, to the west, the Derwent Dams and Howden Reservoir, which form a boundary between West Yorkshire and Derbyshire.[1] Robin Hood Spring is included on the 6" O.S. maps of the area that are available online at NLS, the first of which dates from 1855 (see Maps section below).
