Preparing the ground for Silsden's new primary school

Preparatory work has started on the site of Silsden's new primary school off Hawber Cote Lane. Galliford Try, a major national construction firm, is first creating access to and from the site for works traffic prior to building the school, which is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2021. Catering for up to 640 pupils, the new premises will replace the Hothfield Street and Aire View schools.
