Straddling the hillside between Keighley and Haworth, Cross Roads is a village defined by its steep topography and its proximity to the Worth Valley Railway. Historically, it developed as a busy junction where the old turnpike roads met, serving the local textile mills and the surrounding farming communities. Today, the village feels like a practical bridge between the more industrial valley floor and the high Pennine moors. Life here tends to centre around the Lees Primary School and the cluster of independent shops near the main intersection, while the nearby Hewlett-Packard site remains a major local landmark. For those who spend time here, the appeal lies in the straightforward access to Keighley’s amenities and the heritage of the Bronte country, all while being just a short walk away from the open landscape of Penistone Hill. It is a place where the soot-stained gritstone of the older terraces meets the greener fringes of the valley, offering a sense of community that feels distinct from its larger neighbours.
