Just north of Leeds and Bradford, Otley is a small and pretty town on the River Wharfe, where people have lived since before the Bronze Age. In the Industrial Revolution, Otley became a town which diversified in many different trades. Textile factories, paper mills, and printing machinery factories all employed the local people. Today people who live in Otley either work in the cities south of the town or are employed in the retail sector in Otley.
At reallymoving we can provide you with competitive comparable quotes from local Chartered Surveyors who can carry out a variety of surveys. Most modern housing can be relied upon to be architecturally sound. In this instance a HomeBuyer Report is usually all that is required. However, many buildings in Otley were built during the industrial revolution and at the height of the West Yorkshire’s industrial power. Brick buildings are especially common, and due to their age and their building material may need a more detailed Building Survey. Whatever house you buy, and no matter what survey you choose, make sure you go through reallymoving, as we can get you the best quote for you for free.
With 19 pubs in the small town, these pubs have often been described as the heart of the Otley community and are the social hubs of the town. If you don’t fancy that, then why not take a stroll through Wharfe Meadows Park or visit the Otley Courthouse Arts Centre?
