Conveyancing in Dewsbury

With the River Calder snaking through town, Dewsbury experienced plenty of growth in the 19th century as a mill town. Nowadays there has been lots of redevelopment of these old mills into great new flats and modern apartments, which complements the regeneration of urban areas. Dewsbury enjoys a close proximity to larger neighbours such as Leeds and Bradford, which lie around eight miles to the north, while Huddersfield is a similar distances to the southwest.

There are good transport links for traveling between these parts of West Yorkshire, with trains to Leeds taking less than 15 minutes. Services to Bradford go via Leeds so take closer to 45 minutes, while it’s less than 10 minutes to Huddersfield. The A644 links Dewsbury to the M62, which heads west to Manchester and Liverpool, while the A638 runs to the M1 in the east, and can be used to get to London. Local towns such as Castleford, Bingley, Halifax and Batley are fairly easy to drive to. Leeds Bradford Airport is just over 15 miles away.
