Hey: what to know before moving day
Hey lies along Whitemoor Road, the B6251, around postcode BB8 7LP, and Standing Stone Lane and County Brook Lane are the lanes nearby. Standing Stone Gate Farmhouse and barn, dated 1791, stands right here, and a little to the north are the Hey Fold Farm buildings: a listed late 17th or early 18th-century farmhouse and cottage now one home, a late 18th-century farmhouse and a stone barn.
Whitemoor Reservoir, Cocker Hill and County Brook are the other names on the map around Hey. With stone farmhouses on a B road, the van will usually need to pull into a yard or a gateway. Tell us whether there is a yard, and how far the door is from where a long van can stop.
How the van gets to Hey
The B6251 is the road to know: it links Foulridge with Barnoldswick, and the map names it Causeway and Whitemoor Road through Foulridge and High Lane and Barnoldswick Road beyond Hey. From Bradford the van reaches Colne first, takes the A56 Skipton Road to Foulridge and turns onto the B6251 there.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 45 to 60 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.
