Welcome to Rawfolds

Rawfolds is a small village located in the metropolitan borough of Kirklees, West Yorkshire. The village is situated on the banks of the River Calder and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Rawfolds has a rich history dating back to the 18th century when it was a thriving industrial town. The village was known for its textile mills, which produced high-quality woolen cloth. Today, Rawfolds is a peaceful and quiet village with a close-knit community.

Rawfolds is home to several historic buildings, including the Rawfolds Mill, which was built in the 18th century. The mill was once a major employer in the village and produced high-quality woolen cloth. Today, the mill has been converted into luxury apartments, which offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Another historic building in Rawfolds is the St. John's Church, which was built in the 19th century. The church is a beautiful example of Victorian architecture and is still in use today.

Rawfolds is a great place to visit for those who love the outdoors. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, which offers plenty of opportunities for hiking, cycling, and fishing. The River Calder is a popular spot for fishing, and there are several fishing clubs in the area.

These parks offer a range of activities, including bird watching, nature walks, and picnicking.
