Armitage Bridge is a village approximately 3 miles south of Huddersfield. It is situated between Berry Brow and South Crosland and lies across and on the eastern bank of the Holme valley. The village is dominated by the large former wollen mill of John Brook and Son, reputedly the oldest family business in the country, having been founded in 1541. The mill has now been now converted into the Yorkshire Technology and Office Park.
