creative Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I work in Horbury Bridge... on the railway. Nice little village just round the corner! I went to school here and 10 years on I end up living there. Its actually nice walking down the street which is rare these days. Good fun when they have the street party and all those shinanigans going on in the summer We have put our house up for sale but decided to wait now... didnt really want to move!

Rob Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Yorkshire and posh are you sure,ahhhh thats the part that has running water gotcha York has running water, all over the streets sometimes. You need a nice village somewhere north of York, but not too close to Cleveland, theres hundreds of them. Live in the country, not near Leeds or Wakey.

Rich Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Hey guys, I've been offered an oppotunity to move and work in Yorkshire but do not really know the areas too well. I would appreciate any advice on areas to consider living - I have a young family so ideally a small village with good local schools but not too far from a main town for shops and the like. Some good driving roads would be nice too Cheers for your help. Sherburn-In-Elmet where I live. Right on the doorstep of the monthly squires meet:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I like the Scarcroft area. Nice roads. I used to work just down the road, near the big Agfa factory. Motorsport Wheels, Coal Road for the cheapest SO3's, tell them I sent you. I live in Northallerton, about 40mins from Middlesbrough for big shops, but still in the propaahhh countryside. Top driving all round. Fish, when you move up, you'll wonder why you wasted so much time in traffic down south. My idea of heavy commuting traffic these days is only managing an average 55mph on the drive in to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted February 23, 2007 Author Share Posted February 23, 2007 Thanks for all the info guys, I'll do some searching on those areas and see how it goes. Cheers Aran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
