The Hidden History of Cragg Vale
Join us on a walk through Cragg Vale, West Yorkshire. My dog and I set off to find Stoodley Pike, a local landmark. We get a little lost but stumble upon the fascinating ruins of an old paper mill.
Never quite reaching Stoodley Pike, we enjoy the breathtaking views and the company of my excited dog.
Cragg Vale is a hidden gem! If you're in the area, I highly recommend a visit.

    I expect that the paved track was a pack horse route, from the days of hand loom weavers, when horses and mules would be used to carry the heavy cloth pieces from the farms and cottages to - probably - the Piece Hall in Halifax, where they'd be sold.

      @@idiotanddog Well, a farmer might have wool from his sheep, but before it could be woven into cloth it would have to be washed & spun into yarn, so it would be taken away by someone with a train of pack horses and delivered to a small mill that specialised in doing those things, then returned to him, and the finished cloth taken away to be sold. Think of the pack horse drivers as the parcel delivery drivers of today, picking things up & dropping them off all over the area.

    There was once an overflow channel from the canal under the "bridge more like a wall". Notice that the stones of the wall have rounded tops - they are identical to those that are above the overflow channel that's near Whiteley Arches, just west of Hebden Bridge, and there's a stream feeding the canal opposite, and the overflow is there so that during heavy rainfall, excess water from the stream could flow straight across and out again.

    • @idiotanddog
      @idiotanddog 18 днів тому

      Definitely a structure with purpose. Cheers. Now I also have to get out to Whiteley Arches. I'm not familiar with Hebden Bridge but I'm guessing it's a well known spot. I wonder if the overflow channel will ever be unblocked? Surely that'd have potential to prevent flooding

    • @Kevin-mx1vi
      @Kevin-mx1vi 18 днів тому

      @idiotanddog The overflow I mentioned is about half a mile towards Todmorden from the Stubbing Wharf pub. The wall is identical to the one in your video, except it has a walkway made of thick wooden planks running alongside it, and the water from the canal flows under the wall, which is raised about a foot from the ground on plinths.
