About

Honley and Brockholes sit in the Holme Valley in Kirklees, a few miles south of Huddersfield. The River Holme runs through both settlements, and remnants of the 19th-century textile industry remain in the form of mill buildings and channels that shape the village layouts. Honley has a station on the Penistone Line, providing direct rail links to Huddersfield and Sheffield, while local bus routes connect the villages to surrounding towns. Stone-built terraces, a compact high street of independent shops and pubs, and a network of footpaths and bridleways give straightforward access to the surrounding moorland and valley sides.

Community facilities include primary schools, sports pitches and village halls that host clubs and seasonal events. In Brockholes the riverbanks and converted mill premises form a tight cluster of housing and small businesses, with footbridges and riverside paths linking into the Holme Valley Trail. The area is routinely used as a base for walking into nearby Pennine uplands and for commuters using the Penistone Line or the A62 corridor toward Huddersfield.
