Copley Village

Calder Terrace, Copley, Halifax.
Copley is a 'model village' on the southern outskirts of Halifax founded by mill-owner and philanthropist Edward Akroyd in the 1840s. It is now a Conservation Area with many listed buildings. He built the village to improve the lives of his workers.
His other 'model village' is Akroydon which he built after Copley.
Best viewed 'Large'.
