    Research on The Hardakers of Eccleshill
    Eccleshill is just across the Aire valley from Rawdon and Horsforth, both originally in Guiseley parish, where some of the early HARDAKERs lived. Some of the ones who moved to Eccleshill maintained their links with the Rawdon area. And parts of Eccleshill are closer to Calverley church than to Bradford church, which is probably why some residents chose to patronise the Calverley church rather than go to Bradford. In addition, to make things even more complicated, occasionally some Eccleshill residents were baptised or buried at Horsforth or Rawdon.
