Moorside (Bramley): what to know before moving day
Moorside is counted as part of Bramley, and it shares a residents' association with Ganners, one of the estates listed in the Bramley history. On the map the Ganners streets (Ganners Way, Ganners Road, Ganners Hill, Ganners Green) sit beside Moorside Drive, Moorside Street and Moorside Terrace, with the Broadlea streets and Landseer Drive and Landseer Road close by. Because so many roads share a family name, a full address matters more here than usual.
Useful landmarks for a driver include Whitecote Primary School, Broadlea Community Centre and The Bramley Villagers pub. Below the estates, the land falls away through Bramley Fall woods to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the River Aire. Newlay Lane heads down that slope towards Newlay, where the part south of the river is also in Bramley and Stanningley ward.
How the van gets to Moorside (Bramley)
From Bradford, take the A647 towards Leeds as far as Bramley, then the A657 north up Upper Town Street and Whitecote Hill to Broad Lane, which runs along the edge of Moorside. Leeds and Bradford Road, the B6157, is the other through road, and Waterloo Lane and Pollard Lane link the streets in between.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 15 to 30 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.
