About

Warley ward sits on the western edge of the town of Halifax, characterised by its steep hills and elevated position overlooking the Calder Valley.

Open moorland stretches to the west, providing direct access to walking routes with expansive views across the South Pennines, contrasting with the more urban setting to the east.
