Man with a Van Pudsey

Our man and van in Pudsey

Man With Van Long Wheelbase is one driver and one Ford Transit long wheelbase van, based in Bradford, 4 miles from Pudsey (15-25 minutes by road). Pudsey is inside our core area, so the drive is simply part of one fixed price agreed before we set off.

Moving in Pudsey: what to know first

The town centre sits on high ground around Church Lane, Lidget Hill and the Market Place, and the land drops away south towards Pudsey Beck and Fulneck. The roads off Lowtown, Chapeltown and Robin Lane are gritstone terraces and back-to-backs with the front door on the pavement and no way round the back, so the van stops outside and every piece goes out through the front. Inter-war semis on the side roads, and the estates towards Troydale and Swinnow, usually have a drive or a kerb to pull in at.

Pudsey Market on Market Square trades on Tuesdays and Fridays, when the streets by the market and the bus station are at their busiest, and the square can be hired for private events at weekends. A flat over a town-centre shop is easiest on a Monday, Wednesday or Thursday, or before the stalls go up. The van is about 2.5m tall and will not clear a car park height barrier of around 2.1m, so it loads from the street.

Trade addresses cluster on Grangefield Industrial Estate, off Richardshaw Road and First Avenue, where units have doors the van can back up to. The Owlcotes Centre at Stanningley, beside the A647, is the main shopping centre. Leaving town at peak time means the signals at Dawson's Corner, where the Leeds ring road crosses the A647, so an early start saves the queue.

Parking and access in Pudsey

There is parking in the centre, but the van is about 2.5m tall and works from the street, so check for a height barrier and the signs before stopping. On the terraced streets it is on-street parking only, first come first served, and market days take the kerb near Market Square.

• The streets by Pudsey Market and the bus station are tight and heavily parked, and the market trades on Tuesdays and Fridays, and the square can be hired for private events at weekends.
• The Fulneck lane is one-way and access-only, in from Fartown and out by Lower Bankhouse, so the van cannot turn and come back the way it came.
• Terraces and back-to-backs off Lowtown and Robin Lane often have no rear access, so everything goes through the front door onto the pavement.
• Getting on and off the A647 at peak times means waiting at signalised junctions such as Dawson's Corner, where the Leeds ring road crosses.
