Chellow Dene (sometimes written as Chellow Dean), is a woodland and parkland in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. Chellow exists in the Domesday Book and was its own settlement before becoming part of Heaton, then Bradford, with it now being in the City of Bradford. Chellow is now mostly known for the dene, and its associations with water and reservoirs, which are used to supply water to the City of Bradford. The open reservoirs are only used for water supply during times of drought, and are now owned by Bradford council, not Yorkshire Water.
