Huddersfield, Yorkshire

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A large industrial town to the south of Bradford in western Yorkahire, Huddersfield has a history dating back to the Iron Age. The town grew enormously during the Industrial Revolution as a centre of the textile industry. Castle Hill rises above the town, with Victoria Tower providing wonderful views from the top. The Tolson Museum provides exhibits exploring the rich industrial and social heritage of the area. St George's Square boasts fine Victorian buildings, and the extravagant railway station is as grand as many stately homes.
