About

Keighley Central ward lies in the northern part of the town of Keighley, within the Bradford district. The area is defined by the River Worth to the south and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal to the north, with a mix of residential streets and local commercial activity along its main roads. Housing primarily consists of Victorian terraces and some later developments, serving a densely populated community. The topography slopes upwards from the valley floor, offering views across the town centre.

The ward's civic heart includes the public library and the former town hall, now a business centre, reflecting its historical administrative role. A notable local landmark is the singlestory, red-brick Keighley Market, a covered hall operating since the 19th century. Green space is provided by Devonshire Park, with its bowling greens and playgrounds. The area is well-connected by the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, a preserved heritage line that terminates at the ward's station.
