Silsden developed as a settlement in Saxon times at the point where two streams, which form Silsden (‘Cobby’) Beck, meet.
The flow of the streams provided the settlement with a powersource, when harnessed by the use of a waterwheel, which largely accounts for its development, primarily as an agricultural village with a corn mill and latterly as an industrial town, housing textile mills and manufacturing firms.
In a wider sense, it also has a rarity value, as Silsden is one of the few towns in both the District of Bradford and the County of West Yorkshire to retain a watercourse as a visible part of its form.
