Love these vids.

Pretty sure the steep cobbled road that runs down next to Wainhouse Tower is part of Wakefield Gate, Ive had a unit there on Washer Lane Ind estate for 35 years.

This was great!... but please change the name to [ Halifax: the story of the Woolshops & beyond, Documentary from Calderdale ] you could ad on West Yorkshire but I cant remember the word count. But I found this film, as I'd only just leaned that the gates to the Arcade still exist, as a very small kid, I only remember there being boards up there, and just assumed for 40+ years that it was all new. and my parents had told me about that arcade for years. So to learn WHS's entrance was the north gate entrance just blew me away a little! ^_^

4:09 where are you stood ??

I’d love a dabble with that big hipped bird 🤤🤤🤤🤤

Excellent 👍

Excellent

An excellent informative video, will certainly walk it one day. Never thought the way in and out of Halifax would be so difficult back in the day. 🥵

Thank you very much! Well presented and informative, thoroughly enjoyed the video.

Please like, share and subscribe people!

Very enjoyable an informative thankyou

Fascinating walk, I never knew of the Wakefield gate , thoroughly enjoyed your insight and history, the drone photography is beautiful.

Well done to you all. I can't resist, however, saying that if the late Duke of Edinburgh had been present, and he was an expert unveilor, he would have said after about five minutes,"Oh for God's sake unveil the bugger". That is the milder version.

Amazing video of my beautiful town.

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this informative video! I moved from Halifax to the USA in the late 90's, but I am still amazed by all of the history that I didn't know about when I lived there from 1971 to 1997. My goal is to walk parts of the Wakefield Gate when I next return for a visit!

Many thanks and congratulations to the people who made this happen!👏

Lots of information and good narration. Does anyone have a "link" to the map that is shown at 5:28 to 5:41. There looks to be a lot more information on this data sheet. I looked on the Trust website but did not find it.

Excellent 👍

Enjoyable and informative

Hi. I’m originally from Pye Nest and grew up living in Ackroyd Terrace in the shadow of Wainhouse Tower. Can you confirm that the Wakefield Gate I walked on to school is part of the Wakefield Gate featured in this excellent film.

Fantastic

As someone who lived in Halifax area for 4 years a few decades ago I wish I had seen this then ! And must go back. Excellent video, thanks

A very good an interesting video, Calderdale has a lot of hidden history and some not so hidden - moved down here in the 90's and was blown away I lived near an ancient well renowned for its healing qualities, stone circles and a Roman fort! Wasnt Treasure Island partially written in the town too....its an old place and I have loved it since I moved here

Sadly, it takes the burden of years to appreciate one’s local pride. Great video.

The Piece Hall is a very very special building and a huge asset for Halifax now. It took a long time for its value to be realised, thankfully avoiding the proposal of an Arnedale Centre to replace it.

Really enjoyed this video and it was well put together. Please make more like this about the history of Halifax and the surrounding area. 👌

Fantastic video! I was born in Halifax and left in the 90's just returning last year. As a teen I never appreciated how great our town and it's amazing history and architecture was until I decided to move back. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed it verry much

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed it

Thanks for sharing, I loved it wish that somday I will see and walk for myself al this beauty of halifax and it surroundings, greats from the netherlands 🇳🇱

Mahalo for a lovely cinematic & informative short form documentary.

There is film on UA-cam of the full Magna Via .it is best avoided after heavy rain and safer up than down

This was excellent thank you

May I say that was SO enjoyable. I no longer live in Halifax so always enjoy seeing interesting programmes about it. This, although not a 'programme' was one of the best and most informative films I have seen in recent years. Thank you so much to the gentleman (David Witcher) who shared his knowledge - and fitness - with us! :)

Thank you for this brilliant film. We are lucky to be living in one of the best boroughs in Britain.

I painted the Cross inside and the front recently

This was wonderful! Informative and well-researched and presented. I enjoyed following along on the map. Thank you for sharing!

We love learning about local history, and found this to be a very interesting and well filmed documentary. Thanks for sharing!
