The Calderdale area includes some the towns which very much relied on the textile industry for survival.
Hepstonstall is one of them - a little weaving village set in the moor above Calderdale. Explore the museum which was once the grammar school or head for the nearby beauty sport of Hardcastle Crags.
This part of the world also includes the textile town of Halifax, which has plenty to see and do.
It was built on the wool and cloth industries and many of the buildings reflect the prosperitysuch work brought to the area.
Piece Hall was where cloth was traded and half-timbered Shibden Hall houses the West Yorkshire Folk Museum. It's set within 90 acres of parkland with walks, a miniature railway and boating lake to enjoy.
