Colden School (2006)

Colden School is a junior and infants school established in 1878.[1]

Colden Water is crossed by two old footbridges, possibly dating from the 17th century. Strines Bridge is a packhorse bridge,[2] and lower down a clapper bridge crosses the stream.[3] Both are Grade II listed buildings.

The Pennine Way and Calderdale Way both pass through Colden.
