Revision as of 03:10, 12 February 2006 by BrownHairedGirl (talk | contribs) (Disambiguated link to Halifax)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Ripponden is a village in the county of West Yorkshire, England, near Halifax, on the River Ryburn. It is the site of a Roman settlement, and there is a Roman Road over nearby Blackstone Edge, a rocky ridge of millstone grit.
Ripponden is the main settlement in a small group of villages, each with its own identity: Barkisland, Ripponden, Rishworth and Soyland. The citizens of Ripponden are represented on Ripponden Parish Council, whose embryonic website (see external links) includes further information about the village and surrounding settlements. The area is a substantial part of the Ryburn Ward (see external links), itself part of Calderdale Council.
