Shepley is a peaceful village in West Yorkshire, England, located about 8 miles southeast of Huddersfield. Its name comes from Old English, meaning “a meadow where sheep are kept.” The village has a long history, mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. In the 19th century, Shepley was known for its woollen mills and tailoring shops. Today, it offers a mix of rural charm and modern living, with local pubs, a primary school, and a railway station connecting to Huddersfield and Sheffield.
