Copley, West Yorkshire

Copley is a village in the county of West Yorkshire, England, south of Halifax and east of Sowerby Bridge, by the River Calder and the Calder and Hebble Navigation.

It is the site of a community predating Sir Titus Salt's Saltaire near Bradford. In 1874, Colonel Edward Ackroyd, a woollen mill owner, built a mill with decent houses for the workforce, as well as a canteen, a school, a library and a church.
