Description: Knowl House, Knowl Road, Mirfield. A large stone built historic building set in its own grounds with large carpark to the front. It housed Kirklees Council's Street Scene dept. This dept is responsible for eg refuse collection, street maintenance etc. There is a plant nursery to the rear. A few years ago MAFF officers were based here. Originally it was the home of the Walker family who owned James Walker & Sons, carpet manufacturers at Holme Bank and Butt End Mills, Mirfield. They donated the house to Kirklees Council, who sold it in 2013. The artist Hilda Annetta Walker lived here with her family until at least 1911.
