I'd vote for Twite, except it seems that a lot of the lottery money would instead be going on things like this (from the Watershed Landscape Project website):

Access Improvements

The footpaths and tracks built to service the conduits and reservoirs throughout the South Pennines offer an easy way to access the remote Watershed Landscape. The project funding will support improvements to public footpaths by Yorkshire Water, Kirklees Council and White Rose Forest at Scammonden. Similar improvements will be made at United Utilities Worsthorne and Denshaw Estates. Working with United Utilities, Oldham will create a new circular path around Castleshaw Reservoir with an improved car park and a series of heritage trails which will explore the Castleshaw valley more fully.
