Ridings FM

Ridings FM was an Independent Local Radio station serving the Wakefield District of West Yorkshire.

The station was folded into Greatest Hits Radio West Yorkshire, as part of a rebrand, on 1 September 2020.

The station was originally based at Thornes Office Park in Wakefield before co-locating with sister station Dearne FM at Zenith Park on Whaley Road, Barugh Green, in the north-west of Barnsley in 2009.

This service was discontinued in 2013, as it was a significant cost and covered areas outside of Wakefield with an uneconomically small potential audience.

[1] By the closing date of 8 September 1998, WF 107 Ltd (based in Wakefield), Henna FM Ltd (based in Batley providing Asian music) and Ridings FM had applied to the Radio Authority for the licence.
