A link to all things in Baildon

This is my attempt to promote the village where I live. It is a small village just outside Shipley which and within 5 miles of Bradford City centre.

Saltaire (famous for the David Hockney gallery - http://www.saltsmill.org.uk/ ) is on one side, Whilst the border to Leeds is on the other - but is also surrounded by Moorland and beautiful coutryside.... leading towards Bronte land in Haworth within 30mins drive.

Here are a few links to check out for more information to all things Baildon.

This link also tells you about some of the films that have been filmed in and around Baildon i. e. Billy Liar (1963), Rita Sue & Bob too (1987), Damon & Debbie (1987)
