Royds Hall Community School is a mixed all-through school for pupils aged 4 – 16. It is located in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England, and on the north side of the Colne Valley towards Milnsbridge.
Royds Hall was a large farmhouse in the Paddock and Longwood area of Huddersfield, adjoining Royds Wood. It was rebuilt as a grander mansion (still called Royds Hall, but also known as 'Royds Wood'. It was still referred to on the town plan published in 1890 as Royds Hall), whose philanthropic mill owner served the increasingly industrialised and expanding town. The building was formerly Royds Hall Mansion, built in 1866 by Sir Joseph Crosland, the Conservative MP for the Huddersfield constituency from 1893–95. On his death in 1904 he left the property to his nephew Thomas Pearson Crosland, who sold it to Huddersfield Corporation in 1915 for £17,000. The Hall served as a military hospital during and after the First World War.
Royds Hall Secondary School opened on 20 September 1921, which became a comprehensive school in the early 1970s. In February 2014, the later Royds Hall High School changed its name to Royds Hall Community School.
