  • Batley er en liten by i West Yorkshire, England. Den ligger nord for Dewsbury, like ved motorveien M62. Byen var i viktoriansk tid et sentrum for det som ble kalt «the shoddy trade», den tilsmussede næringen. Filler og gamle klær ble resirkulert til tepper, pledd og uniformer. Eierne av bedriftene som drev med dette ble kalt shoddy barons og det var også en shoddy King. Det store huset som nå er Bagshaw Museum i Wilton Park ble bygget av en av disse «baronene». Batley Grammar School har hatt flere kjente elever: Sir Titus Salt, som grunnla mønsterlandsbyen Saltaire samt Joseph Priestley, Josiah Wedgwood og kaptein James Cook. Byen har sammen med Dewsbury slitt med økonomiske problemer i lengre tid, og begge har blitt med i et EU-program for å avhjelpe dette.
