Location
Castleford is a historic market town in the City of Wakefield metropolitan borough, West Yorkshire, England. It lies at the confluence of the River Aire and River Calder, with good transport links via rail and road to nearby cities like Leeds (about 12 miles east) and Wakefield.
The town's population is approximately 46,000 residents, based on the 2021 Census figure of around 45,106 (with slight growth noted in recent estimates to 2022/2025).
Castleford forms its own distinct built-up area (separate from the larger West Yorkshire conurbation that includes Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, and Halifax).
Its immediate urban catchment or built-up area - encompassing the town and closely connected surrounding neighbourhoods - has a population in the region of 45,000–50,000 people, reflecting modest expansion beyond the core town wards (such as Castleford Central and Glasshoughton, Airedale and Ferry Fryston, and Altofts and Whitwood).
