Overview of Horsforth

The town of Horsforth is located north-west of Gatwick Airport, approximately 240 miles away, with an average taxi journey time of around 4 hours via the M25 and M1. Horsforth is situated within the City of Leeds metropolitan borough, in West Yorkshire, and lies just north of Leeds City Centre. It is no surprise that the name Horsforth derives from the words horse and ford, referring to a river crossing on the River Aire. This crossing was likely used for transporting woollen goods to and from Pudsey, Shipley, and Bradford. The original ford, located off Calverley Lane, was replaced by a stone footbridge at the turn of the 19th century. Until the mid-19th century, Horsforth was largely an agricultural community. It expanded rapidly with the growth of the nearby industrial centre of Leeds. By the late 19th century, Horsforth became notable as the village with the largest population in England at the time. The development of railways, turnpike roads, tramways, and the nearby canal made Horsforth a key transport hub and ultimately established it as a dormitory suburb of Leeds.

Services

A 'Meet and Greet' service can be arranged when booking whereby the driver will be in arrivals with the passenger's name or company name, whichever you prefer. A comforting thought, especially for first time visitors in a foreign country.

If your flight is early or subject to delays, we will track your flight's progress and send your driver at the new expected time of arrival.

A lot of our work is corporate based so if you are booking a taxi for other people you need not worry, we will give them the professional quality service they would expect. We accept most major credit cards and debit cards and send receipts via email.

Orgate Runners also welcomes corporate account customers and, subject to credit references, we'll be happy to offer you a monthly invoicing facility or direct debit on our airport taxi services.
