Mytholmroyd ( ) is a large village in the civil parish of Hebden Royd, in the Calderdale district of West Yorkshire, England, east of Hebden Bridge. It lies in the Upper Calder Valley, east of Burnley and west of Halifax. There are more than 21 listed buildings in the village.
==Toponym== Mytholmroyd was recorded in the 13th century as "Mithomrode" and in the 17th century as "Mitholmroide". The name means 'a clearing for settlement, where two rivers meet', likely derived from the Old English (ġe)mȳthum (inflected form of (ġe)mȳthe, "river mouth"), plus rodu ("field" or "clearing"). The L was probably inserted out of confusion with the common place-name element holm, Old Norse for a small island or eyot.
