Bingley

Bingley is a market town neighbouring Bradford in West Yorkshire, England. It is prettily situated on the bank of the River Aire and on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. The town is thought to have been founded by the Saxons at an ancient ford on the River Aire, leading to the villages of Harden, Wilsden and Cullingworth on the opposite bank. The ford has long since been replaced with the "Ireland Bridge", the current medieval structure having been completed in 1686.

Yorkshire spans three National Parks — the Yorkshire Dales, the North Yorkshire Moors and the Peak District, in addition to the untamed moorland of Bronte Country, the Howardian Hills and the Yorkshire Wolds. West Yorkshire in particular is a unique part of the country to visit, with a fantastic combination of the old and the new in such close proximity. Transport links in the region are some of the best in the country due to the industrial and mining heritage of the area, making it easy to fill each day of your visit with as much, or as little, activity as you fancy, with minimal planning required in advance.

Just a few select examples of the many attractions of the West Yorkshire region includes: the Brontë Parsonage Museum, Harewood House, the Middleton Railway working steam railway line, the Thackray Museum of medical history (which is a particularly popular attraction with children), The Alhambra Theatre, Bradford Cathedral, St. Leonards Farm Park, Pontefract Castle, and the Lightwater Valley Theme Park & Zoo.
