Under Bank West Yorkshire Map

About Under Bank

Under Bank rests in a fold of the landscape, a quiet collection of dwellings where the air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke. It lies 0.7 km south-east of Holmfirth (from Holmfirth: bearing 145°T, OS grid SE 145 076). The roads here often curve with the contours of the land, their surfaces worn smooth by generations of footsteps and the slow tread of farm machinery. Sheep graze on slopes that rise towards the horizon, their woolly forms like scattered cotton against the deep green of the fields. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-overcast West Yorkshire sky, can catch the wet slate roofs of houses, turning them to a muted, shimmering grey. A small stream, a persistent murmur, winds its way through the outskirts of Under Bank, reflecting the changing moods of the heavens above. The rhythm of life in Under Bank is dictated less by clocks and more by the seasons and the enduring patterns of the land.
