Introduction

5.19.2 We question the total population of the village which is quoted at 2,937. According to Cullingworth Conservation Area Assessment prepared by Bradford Council in January 2003 it states at the time of the 1991 census the population of Cullingworth stood at 2,993, which is greater than the figure quoted in Feb 2021. We refer you to 5.19.14 below.

Planning for Homes

5.19.14 It is quoted that Cullingworth has 1,371 dwellings. According to the precept payments made to the Village Council in December 2020, Cullingworth has 1,581 homes contributing to the precept, a difference of 210 dwellings, (with the figure to increase to 306 on just one development) which added to all additional development from the 1991 census increases the population dramatically from the figure quoted in 5.19.2 above.
