Hole Bottom (Holmfirth): what to know before moving day
Butterley Lane is the address for most of Hole Bottom. Part of it is mapped as a living street, where people on foot share the road, so the van takes it slowly. Around it are Butterley Lane Allotments, Butterley Leys Farm and, further up, Scar Hole Lane and Staley Royd Lane. New Mill Dike and Jackson Bridge Dike run through the low ground, and Wildspur Wood covers the slope.
Two textile names sit close by. Bower and Roebuck still make cloth at their mill in the valley just off the A616, while Wildspur Mills and Wildspur Grove are now residential addresses. Lee Mills Industrial Park is a short way towards Scholes, and Barnaby's Day Nursery and New Mill Community Garden are nearby.
How the van gets to Hole Bottom (Holmfirth)
From Bradford the route is the M606 and M62, round Huddersfield, then the A616 up the valley to New Mill, where it becomes Sheffield Road. Butterley Lane leaves Sheffield Road a short way south of the crossroads.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 40 to 55 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.
