About Clayton

Clayton, located 3 miles west of Bradford city centre in West Yorkshire, is a civil parish steeped in history, with roots tracing back to at least the 11th century as noted in the Domesday Book. Historically recognized for its clay deposits and as a significant hub for the wool trade, it housed the British Wool Marketing Board headquarters until the late 1990s when the site was redeveloped into housing. The village regained its civil parish status with the establishment of a parish council in 2004, making it a noteworthy area for prospective planning applications. The settlement has a population of approximately 9,180 (2021 estimate). It sits within the Bradford district.
