Roofing and the housing in Horsforth

Stone cottages and terraces round Town Street and The Green, with inter-war and later housing spreading out towards the airport road. We cover the whole area, including Town Street, New Road Side and the streets up towards Cragg Hill.

Gritstone towns have heavy roofs: stone slate on the oldest cottages and Welsh slate on the Victorian rows, often with tall stacks and stone gutters. Sound stone slate is reused, and matched with reclaimed stone where it is not.

Working in Horsforth

Stone cottages and terraces in the older parts sit beside large areas of inter-war and post-war semis and detached houses. Steep streets and narrow lanes in the older part of town make access and skip placement part of the plan. Horsforth is about 5 miles from the city centre, and we also cover Rawdon, Tinshill and Hawksworth next door.
