The main beneficiary of the reservoirs' water is Sheffield, less than 15 kilometres away. The valley was used as practise ground for the lancaster bombers in the 2nd world war in connection with the operation of the dam busters in 1943. Each year there is a commemorative fly past of the Battle of Britain.
