Idle is a village within the City of Bradford Metropolitan District. It’s name is derived from the Old English word ‘Idel’ which means unused land. The area thrived  during the 19th Century when it benefitted from Bradford’s textile boom. World renowned Artist David Hockney who was born in Bradford spent some of his youth in the area.
