Community Assembly of Huddersfield
Serving, supporting and protecting our local community
About Us
The Community Assembly of Huddersfield is located in a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees in West Yorkshire and is the largest settlement in the Kirklees district. The town is in the foothills of the Pennines. The rivers around the town provided soft water required for textile treatment in large weaving sheds making it a prominent mill town which enjoyed an economic boom in the early part of the Victorian era.
Local settlement dates back over 4,000 years and Castle Hill, a major landmark, was the site of an Iron Age hill fort. The remains of a Roman fort were unearthed in the mid 18th century at Slack near Outlane, west of the town. The earliest surviving record of the place name is in the Domesday Book of 1086, Oderesfelt. It appears as Hudresfeld in a Yorkshire charter from 1121 to 1127, and later as Huderesfeld in 1297. The modern name is pronounced without a the H at the beginning much the same in the Domesday Book.
Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
