Addingham is a large village and civil parish in the metropolitan borough of Bradford, West Yorkshire, sitting in the attractive valley of Wharfedale beside the River Wharfe. It occupies a convenient spot on the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales, with moorland like Ilkley Moor and popular walking country close by, so it feels both rural and well connected to nearby towns such as Ilkley and cities like Leeds.
Historically the village grew around wool and textile mills powered by the river and local quarrying, and many Victorian buildings and former mill sites remain part of the streetscape. Today it has a lively community vibe with independent shops, pubs and local events, and is popular with commuters and outdoor enthusiasts who value its combination of heritage, easy access to walking routes and village amenities.
