About

Skircoat Green is a residential suburb of Halifax in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, lying about a mile south-west of the town centre. The area is largely made up of streets of late-Victorian and Edwardian housing, small terraces and semi-detached villas, many constructed from local millstone grit and set around a small central green and parade of shops. It occupies higher ground above the Calder Valley, so several streets open out to long views across the town and river corridor rather than into dense urban blocks.

Local provision includes a primary school, community facilities, places of worship and a handful of independent retailers and cafés clustered near the green. Regular bus services link Skircoat Green with Halifax and neighbouring suburbs, while footpaths and lanes connect into nearby playing fields and pocket parks. Community groups run sports and activity sessions, and the pattern of stone houses, boundary walls and mature trees gives the neighbourhood a consistent, local character rooted in Calderdale’s building traditions.
