Aspin: what to know before moving day
The street names come in families, which is the main thing to get right when you book. There are Aspin Park Drive, Avenue, Crescent and Road; Aspin Drive, Way, Gardens, Grove, View and Oval; and a group named after abbeys, Rievaulx Avenue, Kirkham Court, Fountains Way and Abbots Way. Aspin Drive, Aspin Way and Aspin View are only a few streets apart, so give the full street name and postcode.
King James's School, Knaresborough's secondary, and Aspin Park Academy are both here, and most streets are 20 mph. A move timed away from the start and end of the school day is easier on Aspin Lane and Farfield Avenue. Knaresborough Cricket Club has its ground on Aspin Lane, and the map marks Aspin Pond.
How the van gets to Aspin
The route data from Bradford comes round the Harrogate southern bypass and leaves it on Grimbald Crag Way, the B6164, then turns along Wetherby Road and Farfield Avenue into the estate. Aspin Lane is the main road through.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 45 to 55 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.
