Horbury Junction West Yorkshire Map

About Horbury Junction

Horbury Junction, a suburban expanse within the Wakefield district, carries the quiet hum of life on the edge of something larger. It lies 1.1 km south-east of Horbury (from Horbury: bearing 132°T, OS grid SE 302 176), and is situated north-north-west of Calder Grove village. The landscape here, where the land gently slopes towards the Aire and Calder Navigation, often catches the afternoon sun in a way that softens the brickwork of its dwellings and the angular lines of its industrial past. Though far from the dramatic peaks of a national park, there is a subtle beauty in the way the sky stretches wide above the rooftops, an unbroken canvas for the passing clouds. Horbury Junction’s identity is woven through the quiet industry that once defined it, the echoes of which can still be felt in the sturdy architecture and the determined spirit of its residents.
