| Rawdon is a small village that lies eight miles north-west of Leeds. It stands on a hill above the Aire which is only a few miles north of Wharfedale. It has been described as what what Yorkshire was and still is if you scratched away the modern-day gloss and stop the traffic for five minutes.
Up until the 1970’s Rowdon was part of Aireborough. But most local people of Rowdon regard it as being independent of both Leeds and Bradford.
Very close to Rawdon is Yeadon which was once a typical mill town. During the Second World War Lancaster Bombers were built at Yeadon which made it a wanted target for Germans bombers.
A part of Rawdon is known as Little London which is below Micklefield Park. When this was being built in the 1830’s locals christened it ‘Little London’ due to the amount of buildings being under construction. Because of this nick name a lot of the streets were named accordingly. London Lane and London Square to name but a few. Today the narrow streets and stone cottages of Little London are highly prized and much-favoured by house buyers.
