About Scammonden
Scammonden or Dean Head was a village close to Huddersfield, in the Dean Head Valley, England, before the valley was flooded in the 1960s. The M62 motorway crosses the dam wall and then passes through a cutting to the west. The Chapel of St Bartholomew still exists, as does the old vicarage, which is now home to a sailing club.
