    There has been a settlement in the area for over 4,000 years, the remains of a Roman fort were unearthed in the mid-18th century near Outlane.

    Sitting just 15 minutes from Leeds, 30 minutes from Manchester and a little over an hour from Sheffield, Huddersfield is extremely convenient for easy travel by both road or rail.

    Described as the “backbone of England”, the wild and wonderful Pennines are literally on the town’s doorstep. The Pennine route passes through three national parks; The Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales and Northumberland and is traversed by as many as 250,000 walkers annually.

    Most of the primary schools have been awarded a status of “good” by Ofsted. Lindley, Newsome, Spring Grove Junior and Infant and Reinwood Infant and Nursery schools have all attained the much-coveted rating of “outstanding”.

    As well as a good assortment of secondary schools, which cover compulsory and sixth form education for the town’s population, Huddersfield has two sixth form colleges; Huddersfield New College and Greenhead College west of the town centre.
