Hepworth and Idle Cricket Club
Hepworth and Idle Cricket Club
The cricket ground occupies the site of the former Town End Quarry, which must have been infilled.
Idle & Thorp

Idle and Thorp are two formerly separate villages north of Bradford. Nowadays they form part of the Bradford conurbation, and the name of Thorp is much less used locally than Idle (although it presumably gave its name to nearby Thorpe Edge). Together, they were formerly known as Idlethorp, and that is the title of a local history book by Wright Watson published in 1950, from a facsimile copy of which (ISBN 9 781 905 40846 8) I have quoted extracts in individual photo descriptions.
