Oakes, Huddersfield
Oakes is a district of Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England. It is situated to the west of the town centre off the A640 New Hey Road towards the M62 motorway, between Marsh, Lindley, Quarmby and Salendine Nook.
Oakes was a location of the textile industry. Wellington Mills was constructed together with the local Baptist church, a school, and a public house in 1864. The large factories have now closed and are used for other purposes. Oakes Mills has been demolished in 2017 to make room for a supermarket.
