Salendine Nook is an area of Huddersfield in West Yorkshire, England. It is 2 miles (3 km) to the north-west of central Huddersfield, and is bordered to the north-east by Laund Hill, Weather Hill and Low Hill and to the south-west by the natural scar of Longwood Edge, above the suburb of Longwood. Longwood Edge affords a panoramic view across the Colne Valley to Crosland Moor on the other side.

Salendine Nook lies between Quarmby and Outlane on a tributary to the textile industries' Packhorse road across the Pennines. Architecturally, the area features traditional weavers' cottages exhibiting vestiges of workshop entrances near the cross roads at its centre as well as dwellings associated with potteries and farms.

Huddersfield New College and Salendine Nook High School are both situated at Salendine Nook, with their playing fields extending out to Longwood Edge.
