Ryburn ward is the second largest ward in Calderdale. It covers the wooded Ryburn Valley and large areas of open moorland and countryside either side of the valley. The main residential areas are along the valley and include Rishworth, Ripponden, Kebroyd and Triangle. Sowerby is another built-up area, above the valley at the northern edge of the ward. Other settlements above the valley include Barkisland, Mill Bank and Krumlin. There is direct access to the M62 motorway (Junction 22) to the south of the ward, and the transpennine Halifax to Rochdale and Oldham road runs through the valley.

New ward information 2026: There will be local (district) elections on 7th May 2026 for new wards following a Local Government Boundary Commission review. The information on this ward data page is based on ward boundaries that predate these elections. The Office for National Statistics is due to publish 2026 ward boundary information in June / July 2026. Once that has been published Calderdale Dataworks will be updated to include new ward data pages.
