About

Silsden is a small town and civil parish in the City of Bradford, West Yorkshire, set where the valley floor meets rising moorland. The River Aire runs close to the built-up area and fields, shaping the town’s pattern of streets and bridges. A railway station on the Airedale Line links the town to the regional rail network, and a mix of former mill buildings and stone terraced streets sits alongside more recent housing. Local shops, a market-style high street and a handful of small businesses form the town centre, while allotments and playing fields offer everyday green space.

Community life is centred on schools, churches and volunteer groups that use public halls and sports pitches. Walks from the town head straight into farmland and upland paths, with views back over the river corridor. There are visible traces of the industrial past in converted mill units and stone warehouses that now house workshops and services, giving the town a layered feel where older structures meet current uses.
