where abouts did stansfield in yorkshire used to be?

Question

I know that Stansfield used to exist as my ancestors came from there, and that it was 4 and a half miles south west of Halifax and 8 miles from Rochdale. It no longer exists but I would like to visit where it used to be, can anyone help?

Answer 1

Stansfield no longer exists in its old form but there is still a Stansfield moor and Stansfield hall. It is/ was, as you rightly point out, in the Calder Valley
