FWIW, Keighley apparently was one of the towns involved in the first recorded town twinning, dating to 1920 (the other twin was apparently a Poix in France, probably Poix-du-Nord). --Haruo 21:55, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Architecture

Evidently someone with a bone to pick with 1960s architecture and no familitary with NPOV wrote this section. It is thoroughly unacceptable for Wikipedia to take an editorial line that there was a "collective madness" or that certain buildings are "monstrosities". I don't know enough about architecture to fix this. Morwen - Talk 06:26, 13 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Borough of Keighley

As a schoolboy growing up in Keighley (Which was controlled by the West Riding County Council at the time) I seem to remember being told that when it was a town borough, Keighley's was the largest borough in the country in terms of area. This was because it encompassed a large number of outlying villages such as Howarth, Oxenhope and beyond. Can anybody shed any light on this matter?–DaveR —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.124.229.3 (talk) 15:56, 12 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Pronunciation of Keighley

Surely no one, other than someone with no knowledge of the town, would pronounce it as 'Keeg-ly'. It's pronounce "Keethli"

Keighley (obviously)

I was wondering whether when it says that there are 7 mosques in Keighley, are they in normal buildings or have they got the traditional islamic style with the pinnarets?? it seems like a great place being near Leeds and Bradford. And big towns like Huddersfield and Halifax. Has it got good rail links though? bye 4 now. (Cokes360 23:10, 15 April 2007 (UTC))[reply]

It has a very good rail network.

Ext links

I reverted this edit as the links don't appear to actually have much content in them. --Oscarthecat 08:18, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zoe Lucker

When you follow the link to Zoe's Wiki entry, it states that she was born in Huddersfield. This is repeated in her IMDB entry too. So who's right?! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nastydonkey (talk • contribs) 07:51, 2 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]
