Featherbed Moss Featherbed Moss is a flat-topped hill, 541 metres (1,775 ft) high, in the Peak District in Derbyshire. It is sometimes mistakenly thought to be a joint county top.

Black Chew Head Black Chew Head in Saddleworth in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham is the highest point or county top of Greater Manchester. It stands on moorland on the edge of the Peak District at a height of 542 m (1,778 ft) above sea level. Historically in the West Riding of Yorkshire, it became a county top in 1974.

Woodhead Reservoir Woodhead reservoir is a man-made lake near the hamlet of Woodhead in Longdendale in north Derbyshire. It was constructed by John Frederick Bateman between 1847 and June 1877. It is at the top of the chain of reservoirs and was the first to be started, though due to construction problems, it was the last to be completed.

Longdendale Chain The Longdendale Chain is a sequence of six reservoirs on the River Etherow in Derbyshire. They were constructed between 1848 and 1884 to supply the growing population of Manchester and Salford with fresh water. Water flowed by gravity through the Mottram Tunnel to the Godley covered reservoir where it drops to service reservoirs at Denton, Audenshaw, Gorton and Prestwich.

Bleaklow Bleaklow is a high, peat-covered, gritstone moorland in the Derbyshire High Peak. It is north of Kinder Scout, across the Snake Pass (A57), and south of the A628 Woodhead Pass. Much of it is nearly 2,000 feet (610 m) above sea level and the shallow bowl of Swains Greave on its eastern side is the source of the River Derwent.
