Upper Cumberworth West Yorkshire Map

About Upper Cumberworth

Upper Cumberworth resides in a landscape where the gentle Yorkshire hills begin to gather themselves. It lies 6.3 km east of Holmfirth (from Holmfirth: bearing 85°T, OS grid SE 204 087), and is situated north-north-east of Birds Edge village. The quietude of Upper Cumberworth is often accompanied by the distant bleating of sheep, a constant murmur against the broad sweep of the sky that hangs over this part of Kirklees. Paths here wind between fields that have been tended for generations, their hedgerows thick with a variety of native flora, offering a subtle palette of greens and browns to the passing eye. The very air seems to carry a certain clarity, a cleanness that speaks of open country, and the sunlight, when it breaks through, can cast long, clear shadows that define the contours of the land with a quiet insistence. Though small, Upper Cumberworth holds a sense of patient endurance, a place where the land dictates a slower, more considered pace of life.
