Deanhead Reservoir is a reservoir near Scammonden, in the metropolitan district of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England.
It is named after Dean Head, a village that was mostly submerged during construction of the dam. During the 1995 drought, the outlines of foundations of buildings in the village were visible.
Deanhead also is the name of a Pennine pass to the south of the reservoir, which carries the A640 from Huddersfield to Denshaw, following the course of a Roman road.[which?]
