Crosland Moor and Netherton is a mainly residential area on the outer fringes of Huddersfield in Kirklees, sited on the rolling slopes that rise towards the Pennines. The neighbourhood mixes Victorian terraces and post‑war housing with pockets of moorland and green space, giving pleasant views across the Colne valley and easy access to country walks; its streets and former mill sites still reflect a strong industrial and textile heritage from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Locally there’s a vibrant community feel with schools, small shops and community centres serving a socially diverse population, and periodic regeneration projects aimed at improving housing and facilities. Good bus links into Huddersfield make the area practical for commuters while its proximity to surrounding countryside keeps it popular with people who want quick access to outdoor recreation alongside urban amenities.
