Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 6 good, 27 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Radcliffe Care Home Ltd runs The Radcliffe, a residential care home in Mirfield, Kirklees with room for 34 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
The nearest home with a higher rating is Fieldhead Park (Good), 0.4 km away. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 2 (improvement necessary), from June 2026. In Kirklees, 79% of homes score 5. 25 other homes in Kirklees share its tier, “Requires improvement”.
In January 2025, CQC gave it Requires improvement overall, and Requires improvement for each of the five key questions too. That is down from Good in October 2019. The typical rating in Kirklees is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. 27 of its 33 scored standards were below good, including “care provision, integration and continuity”.
