Tong is a definate hamlet close to Bradford - BD4 postcode - tiny place with about 50 houses. The Leeds one is a collection of streets, groves and drives etc known locally as Tong and lies to the South of Bramley postcode LS28 and LS 12

The Bradford one is Tong Street on my map

Terry A very rough guess would be about 15 miles, but as the crow flies probably about 12. Sue

Two Tongs, one suburb of Leeds one of Bradford. Collingham is Leeds near Weatherby and distances between are similar I would guess at 10 miles

Hi Sue I don't suppose you would know the approximate distance between the two places. Terry

Sue Report 20 Nov 2003 10:04

Terry According to my map Tong is S-W and Collingham is N-E of Leeds. Sue

Does anyone know if the villages of Tong & Collingham in Yorksire are very close to each other. Terry
