Skellow history
Cromwell placed a cannon battery at the village to protect the Great North Road during the English Civil War. The mounds for the cannon still remain and the surrounding area of cottages and 15th century inn (now known as the ‘Bridge House’) remain to this day.
Coal mining
Coal mining in the West Riding ceased in the 1980s but some remnants from the industry are visible in the area. Several local clubs exist on the sites of former working men’s clubs, and the area has an active local nightlife.
