About
About Huddersfield
Huddersfield is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England. It is the administrative centre and largest settlement in the Kirklees district, in the foothills of the Pennines.
John Betjeman described Huddersfield Railway Station as having 'The finest façade of any such building in the country'. Make up your own mind when you visit as there is no better way to arrive than by train from Manchester or Leeds. Huddersfield has the third largest number of listed buildings in the country after Westminster and Bristol. In the 1920s Huddersfield Town F.C. became the first football club to win the English League Championship three times in a row, a feat only matched by Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City (four times in a row) and Manchester United.

When to go
The best time to visit Huddersfield
The most comfortable months for a city stay in Huddersfield are June and July. July is the warmest month, with average highs of 20 °C; December is the wettest, with about 109 mm of rain.
Comfortable means average daytime high between 18 °C and 29 °C and under 80 mm of rain in the month. Averages for 1991–2020 over the surrounding area, a grid square about 50 km across, so a coast or a nearby mountain can make the town itself warmer or cooler.

Getting there
Getting to Huddersfield: airports and arrival
The nearest airport with scheduled flights is Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA), about 26 km from the city centre in a straight line; Manchester Airport (MAN, 47 km) and Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LPL, 79 km) are also within reach.
Getting around
For the main shopping streets and everything inside the ring-road, it is best to explore on foot. Many of the shopping areas are pedestrianised anyway, and there is not much car parking space inside the ring-road. Many bus routes run from the central bus station to the surrounding towns and villages. This is on the north side of the town centre off Westgate. Most buses operate on repeating hourly timetables up until 11PM. Taxi services are mainly available from outside the train station.

Local knowledge
Eating, drinking and staying safe in Huddersfield
Drink
There are plenty of pubs in Huddersfield, many of which get packed with people on Friday and Saturday nights.
Stay safe
Huddersfield town centre is generally considered safe as it professes "24-hour total CCTV coverage inside the ring road". Walking by yourself, especially if you are female, through Fartown, Bradley, Thornton Lodge and Birkby during late at night can be quite dangerous so if you do wander out stay in groups or get a taxi home.
