About Dewsbury - show infohide info
Dewsbury is a town in the county of West Yorkshire, England, to the west of Wakefield, in the borough of Kirklees. It lies by the River Calder and the Calder and Hebble Navigation. After undergoing a period of major growth in the 19th century Dewsbury has more recently gone under a period of decline. The town is listed as one of the most deprived areas of West Yorkshire by the government and the E.U. has made Dewsbury and its neighbour Batley into a "transformation zone". Some of the worst problems include housing, education and unemployment. Official government statistics estimate that almost a third of the houses in the town lack central heating. However, the town centre is starting to see a revival, and large retailers such as Sainsbury's and Halford's are soon to be joined by Next. The local market is also enjoying something of a revival, having been established since medieval times.
