Cononley is a compact village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, tucked into Airedale between Keighley and Skipton. It sits beside the valley of the River Aire on the lower flanks of the Pennines, so it combines riverside charm with easy access to moorland walks and attractive stone-built lanes.
Historically the village grew with small-scale textile and quarrying activity, and you still see old mill buildings and traditional cottages alongside modern housing; there is a conservation area that preserves some of that character. Today Cononley has a lively community life with a primary school, village hall and sports clubs, and a railway station that gives regular commuter links into Leeds and Skipton, making it popular with people who want village life within easy reach of larger centres.
