Woodside (Bradford): what to know before moving day
Fenwick Drive runs through the estate from Halifax Road, and Woodside Academy and the Woodside Village Centre are both on it. The closes and crescents off it come in named groups: Loweswater Avenue, Ullswater Drive and Wastwater Drive; Lochy Road and Rhum Close; Egremont Crescent, Moresby Road and Collinfield Rise, with Eaglesfield Drive, Parkhead Close and Howgill Green among the rest. Give the full BD6 postcode with the street name when you book.
The woods are Woodside's other side. Royds Hall Wood, North Brow Wood and Judy Woods are close by, and Royds Hall Beck runs through them. Judy Woods is one of Yorkshire's largest areas of beech woodland: it was part of the Royds Hall estate, was mined for coal and ironstone after 1790, still has old bell pits among the trees, and was designated a local nature reserve in 2025. Royds Hall Lane is a track off Halifax Road.
