About

Chellow Heights is a residential area in the district of Bradford, made up of terraced streets and pockets of later housing arranged along a handful of local roads. Local provision includes small shops, a community hall and a primary school, and regular bus services connect the neighbourhood with other parts of the city. Housing reflects the town's growth during the industrial period, with stone-built terraces and semi-detached homes clustered around the main routes and small greens.

The area is centred on Chellow Heights Reservoirs and the adjoining water treatment works; the stone embankments and utility buildings sit on the valley slopes and a public footpath runs beside the water. That corridor provides a straightforward walking route and supports waterfowl and wetland plants, while allotments and small patches of grassland lie between housing and the reservoir. Local planning and community activity often take the operational needs of the water infrastructure into account.
