Location:
Close to historical Saltaire and surrounding
villages of Gilstead and Eldwick, this property is situated at the
edge of a country wood. Additional amenities can be found in the
nearby town of Bingley and the large city of Bradford.
Saltaire is a purpose-built "model" Victorian industrial village, next to Shipley and just to the north of the centre
of Bradford in West Yorkshire's Bronte Country. The village itself
was built in the nineteenth century by the Victorian philanthropist
Sir Titus Salt, to provide self-contained living space for the workers
at his woollen mills, a welcome alternative to the then "dark satanic mills" of Bradford and Leeds. More recently Salt's Mill has been converted by the late
Jonathan Silver into shops and the "1853 Gallery" which houses a collection of the works of the famous artist, David Hockney (who
was of course born in Bradford ).
