Cononley is a compact village in North Yorkshire, England, tucked into the Aire Valley on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. It sits between the larger market towns of Skipton and Keighley and benefits from a local station on the Airedale commuter line with regular trains into Leeds, making it popular with people who work in the city but want village life and easy access to moorland walking and cycling.
Historically the settlement grew from farming and the small-scale industry that accompanied 19th‑century valley development, and today combines stone cottages and period buildings with modern commuter households. The village has a lively community spirit with local clubs, a pub and village amenities, and many residents take part in preserving its rural character while enjoying the practical links to nearby towns and the Dales.
