A little history
Saltaire — the model village built by Titus Salt from 1851 — is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the finest Victorian planned communities in the world. The 1853 Gallery in the Salt's Mill houses the world's largest collection of David Hockney's work. Shipley is the adjacent town.
Salt's Mill and the 1853 Gallery are genuinely extraordinary — the Hockney collection alone is worth the trip. Saltaire village for the Victorian planned community. The River Aire walk.
