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.
