Birstall Batley
Birstall is a large village roughly 6 miles south-west of Leeds in West Yorkshire, England and part of the borough of Kirklees. It features a quaint triangular Victorian marketplace, which replaced an earlier market on High Street in the Georgian area of the village further up the hill. There is still a market on Thursdays.
Situated centrally between Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield and Wakefield close to the M62 motorway, Birstall has always benefited from good transport links but more recently has seen massive growth because of the expansion of Leeds resulting in a growth of commuters wishing to live in more rural surroundings. At its outskirts, there is also a retail park featuring an IKEA store, Borders bookshop, Habitat, Next and Showcase Cinemas complex.
Birstall does not feature in the Domesday Book but is alluded to as one of two main settlements within Gomersal, and was listed in 'Pigot's National Commercial Directory for 1828-29' as one of the four villages which make up the township of Gomersal.
Prior to 1937, Birstall had its own Urban District Council when financial discrepancies forced an unpopular merger with the UDC of neighbouring Batley. Just over 30 years later, this, in turn was merged into Kirklees when the metropolitan councils were formed.
The Yorkshire Dictionary stated that there was once a common phrase cahr quiet li' the' do i' Birstall. However, no reason was given for why Birstall was associated with keeping quiet, although locals insist that it is because no Birstall Luddites were ever arrested. A more recent version of this phrase is tha bess says nowt lahk fowk in Birstall do.

ONLINE PAYMENT FEARS
1. Is paying on the Internet safe?
We consider payment through the Internet safer than a phone call as most companies simply have their telephone staff enter your details in to the web page for you. By removing the human element, your credit card security is increased. When entering your credit card details on the Internet always check that the web address changes from http:// to https:// - the S means you are connected to a secure server and your details cannot be seen by a third party. Our payments are taken by Paypal and we never gain access to your credit card numbers.

We will only complete a booking when we know we have availability of a vehicle for your desired journey. We will also contact you by e-mail to confirm your booking and any other requirements you may have - this also allows you to tell us of any other preferences you have.
