Once a worsted-cloth weaving centre threaded with Victorian mills and back-to-back terraces, Hebden Bridge sits at the confluence of the River Calder and Hebden Water in the Upper Calder Valley in Calderdale, West Yorkshire. Colden and Cragg Vale extend further into the surrounding moorland. Around 4,500 people live here today.
Mytholmroyd, a mile downstream, draws families competing for primary places in this stretch of the valley, while the elevated township of Wadsworth is among the most school-competitive corners of the district. The Caldervale Line carries passengers to Leeds in around an hour.
