Originally Woodlesford was clearly separated from the neighbouring village of Oulton but this is no longer the case due to the residential expansion of both villages. Although an official border between the two villages does exist, most residents in the area probably would be unable to define it due to its complexity. Much of Woodlesford's expansion took place since the 19th century as a mining village due to the nearby Rothwell Colliery. When coal production ceased in 1983 the area went into decline though quickly recovered in large part due to its ideal position for commuters. This is because many major roads are located nearby including the M1, M62, A1 and a newly constructed M1/A1 link road. There is also a small railway station to the north-west of the village which provides frequent trains to Leeds from which services can be caught to all major cities throughout the country.
