About

The Marsden & Pole Moor area lies within the moorland fringes of the Colne Valley in Kirklees. Its landscape is defined by open, elevated terrain with scattered farms and stone-built settlements. The topography slopes towards the valley floor, where the village of Marsden is situated alongside the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. This waterway, a significant historic feature, passes directly through the village in a long, cutting.

The area includes the high ground of Pole Moor and Buckstones Edge, characterised by rough grazing land and reservoirs like Butterley. The Standedge Tunnels, where canal, railway, and modern road routes converge underground, are a major engineering landmark. Local geography is shaped by the underlying millstone grit, providing a rugged backdrop to the community's industrial heritage and outdoor pursuits.
