Several brooks arise on the flanks of the Byrehope Mount. The West Burn , for example, flows from the northwest flank and is dammed to the south-east of the West Water Reservoir , which was established in 1969 and serves as the regional water supply. Furthermore, several source streams of the Baddinsgill Burn arise on the north flank . This does not feed the Baddinsgill Reservoir , but flows directly south of the reservoir into the outflowing Lyne Water .
