Dam Head Brook flowing through Bailey’s Wood is a tributary of Boggart Hole Brook flowing through the Clough to the River Irk. Topographically, therefore, Bailey’s Wood is part of the Boggart Hole Brook basin / watershed.
The Clough & Bailey’s Wood came to be seen as unrelated due to Charlestown Road running between them & the 1894 Boggart Hole Clough Municipal Park boundary excluding Bailey’s Wood.
The site of the former Booth Hall Children’s Hospital lies between Charlestown Road & Bailey’s Wood.
