Embsay Reservoir is located above the village of Embsay, near Skipton in the Yorkshire Dales in North Yorkshire, England. It is owned by Yorkshire Water, and supplies water to the north and west of Skipton, feeding 25,000 homes. It has a dam height of 24 m .
The reservoir was built by Skipton Urban District Council to service the needs of a rapidly rising population in the area. Sanctioned by the Skipton Water and Improvement Act of 1904, forty acres of Embsay Pasture were compulsorily purchased from the Duke of Devonshire in 1905, and work started almost immediately, with the engineering contract being awarded to the specialist company, Messrs G H Hill and Sons. The construction contract at the amount of £47,164 went to Messrs. Harold Arnold and Son, of Doncaster.
