About Fixby
Fixby is a suburb in north-west Kirklees bordering neighbouring Calderdale and is traditionally part of Huddersfield in the English county of West Yorkshire. The name “Fixby” derives from the Gaelic Irish personal name Fiach. In the nineteenth century Fixby was a large estate to which social reformer Richard Oastler was appointed as steward.
