About

Elland ward lies on the southern bank of the River Calder, forming a distinct part of the larger Elland urban area.

A notable local landmark is the Elland Bridge, a key crossing point over the Calder that connects to the town centre. The area includes sections of the Calder and Hebble Navigation canal, with its towpaths providing routes for walking. The ward contains several green spaces and playing fields, such as those at Hullen Edge, which offer recreational space within the urban setting. Housing varies from Victorian terraces to more modern developments on its outskirts.
