New Brighton (Morley): what to know before moving day
The map places the name where Highcliffe Road meets Bright Street, and Brighton Avenue is a short cul-de-sac off Bright Street. Wynyard Drive, Gerard Avenue and Dean Hall Close make up the housing running down to Bruntcliffe Lane. St Francis Catholic Primary School is right on the doorstep, so school-run traffic is something to plan a morning load around.
Scatcherd Park and Morley Leisure Centre are a couple of minutes' walk east, and the cricket ground, fire station and police station are all within a few streets. Morley Hole, a patch of rough ground and old workings on the map, is just to the north. Corporation Street, the B6127 along the top edge, is one-way, which decides which way the van approaches Highcliffe Road.
How the van gets to New Brighton (Morley)
Bruntcliffe Lane is the A643, the same road that becomes Victoria Road on the far side of the town centre. Wynyard Drive leaves it directly, and Highcliffe Road links Wynyard Drive with Corporation Street. From Bradford, the A650 past the Gildersome roundabout meets the A643, which then leads into Morley along Bruntcliffe Lane.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 20 to 35 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.

New Brighton (Morley): questions before you book
Is New Brighton near Scatcherd Park?
Yes, very close. Bright Street runs almost to Queens Promenade at the park's edge, so for a flat near the park it helps to say which side of it you are on.
Which way can the van come up Corporation Street?
Corporation Street is mapped as one-way, so the van usually comes in from Bruntcliffe Lane and Wynyard Drive instead. Give the house number and the road and the route is planned before setting off.
