Cross Roads West Yorkshire Map

About Cross Roads

Cross Roads, a quiet corner of West Yorkshire, holds its own distinct character. It lies 3.9 km south-south-west of Keighley (from Keighley: bearing 201°T, OS grid SE 046 376), and is situated south-east of Oakworth village. The landscape here, a gentle rise and fall of fields, often catches the afternoon sun in a way that softens the edges of the stone farmhouses, lending a certain timeless quality to the scene. Though not a place of grand historical pronouncements, the quietude of Cross Roads suggests a history of steady habitation, of lives lived out against the backdrop of the rolling Pennine foothills. The air, when the wind carries it from the moors, can have a clean, bracing scent, a reminder of the wilder country that lies just beyond the carefully tended fields. This is a place where the subtle shifts in light across the moorland hues might be the most dramatic events of the day.
