Tong Village is a popular commuter village with excellent local facilities including the Greyhound Public House, village hall, farm shop, local dairy and ice cream parlour, garden centre and cricket ground. The property sits within Tong Village Conservation area which features many historic buildings such as nearby St James' Church and Tong Hall, an impressive 18th Century Manor House with which the subject property shares many links being constructed of the same brick and taking its name "The Griffin" from the Tempest family's coat of arms. This name is believed to have been given to the property when it is thought it served as an inn for the monks of Tong Chantry until the early 18th Century. Whilst this property sits within a picturesque rural setting, it is within easy commuting distance of both Leeds and Bradford. Junction 27 of the M62 is within a five minute drive providing easy access to the local motorway network.
