Marsh/willow tit
Without reading through dozens of threads, which is most likely the bird my son has just had in his garden on Burnley Road : marsh or willow tit. He says it had creamy cheeks and a bib(says definitely not a coal tit) but I think they both have these, and the difference is in the cap I may be wrong. But if I can tell him he may get a better look next time.

Try this Sandra - BTO Home Page -comparison video. The more likely in Calderdale is Willow Tit - though very very scarce. Try get some photos if possible.
