Hull, Hell and Halifax... is what the older generation used to say about the place... with some justification. There are nice bits of it like Wainstalls on the outskirts of town where we had a cottage and workshop for a time.
Yes I remember Denfield kitchens, they were in the middle of Furness housing estate, I believe they used to cook the dinners for several local schools that didn't have a kitchen of their own. After the kitchens closed, part of the buildings became a youth motorcycle training centre. Sadly the buildings were demolished many years ago and nothing has been built there since.
wonderfull Picture! and a wonderfull old time!!
Me here from the Halifax in Canada wondering why I don't recognize any places.

great video John
Oh boy thats good Work thank you John 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great job John...Really enjoyed it plus I like the music chosen to go with the compilation..Well done !!
My Father was born at 5 Colin street, Halifax in 1910.
How could such a bustling city have such sad music? Looks like the whole thing didn’t have a bad side.
Love the selection of photos. Any chance of a re-edit that doesn't transition so fast ?
Great photos of my home town yet incredibly depressing music. These images are a celebration of a great town yet the music does not reflect this.
what,s the soundtrack John, beautiful.
Great pics but they change too quickly
You can stop the video at any time to see the pictures for longer periods

Hi You are showing a copyrighted photograph of mine on your video.
Shut up
I was raised in Halifax, grew up in the 60s, 70s. It’s a scruffy old town now, no dignity
I would have enjoyed this video more if the photos were a little slower moving from one to another 👎🏻sorry
