If you can't quite place Farsley then here’s what you need to know.
Located in the leafy western suburbs of Leeds, not too far away from the border with Bradford, it was once a centre of the world's worsted trade.Actually it’s the name of an events company based in Sunny Bank Mills, which provides a stunning venue for theatre, music, and even home brew. Among events this year you can listen to the ‘voice of cricket’, Henry Blofeld, , listen to saxophonist extraordinaire Jess Gillam, , or share the sweet sounds of Eddi Reader, .
Cottages built for workers around this and nearby Springfield Mill are now attractive places to live, oozing character, and with a splash of greenery never too far away. It’s urban living on a human scale. All of which is great - and it gets even better. Nearby New Pudsey station offers fast railway links into the city centre, plus there are three primary schools, good child care options, parks and nearby canal walks. If you are looking for a place that combines convenience with character then Farsley is worth a look. No wonder the Sunday Times recently rated it as a place to watch.Farsley is buzzing.
