I hope you get the chance too! Hebden Bridge is such a lovely place, even more so when the sun is shining brightly, but even on a cloudy and quiet morning like this it's still a fascinating place to visit :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - hopefully it was an immersive experience 'walking' and learning about Hebden Bridge :)
OH SUPER MERCI POUR CE SPLENDIDE PANORAMA DE CETTE INCROYABLE VALLÉE AUX BELLES COULEURS AUTOMNALES !.. HYPER INTÉRESSANTE ET PASSIONNANTE L'HISTOIRE DE HEBDEN À L'ARCHITECTURE SUPERBE !.. TRÈS SYMPA L' HUMOUR DE LA NARRATION !.. BELLE JOURNÉE LET'S WALK !..
Merci beaucoup! Oui, Hebden Bridge est encore plus belle en automne, surtout avec les arbres de la vallée de toutes couleurs! Merci pour regarder et faire les commentaires comme toujours - je suis très heureux que vous avez aimé le vidéo :)
Nice walk in the town today. I enjoyed it, very beautiful and historical the town is. Your walks are always enjoyable. And your history lessons are always great and educational. I like the medieval buildings and houses also. Hope to see more soon have a great day greetings from Canada 😀
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - it means a lot to hear :) Thank you for your comments on the camerawork too - my walk in Hebden Bridge was one of my earlier videos where I filmed with the camera in a fixed position on my shoulder. I've since moved to filming handheld, giving more views of the horizon and the buildings around!
I'm so glad to hear that! Hebden Bridge is an absolutely wonderful place, and nestled away among the valleys of the Calderdale district of West Yorkshire, but it's certainly a delight to visit, as you now know :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and your trip to Hebden Bridge!
Just came back today from visiting Hebden, Heptonstall, Mytholmroyd & Todmorden et al. ......sublime places , and all thanks to watching your video !!!!
It really is a gorgeous town - but I'm sure you had a wonderful time in Hebden Bridge when you visited, it's a beautiful place just to walk around and take in :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
Missing this town. Will never forget a surprising meeting with a fellow Indonesian at the kitchen of The Trades Club. If anyone happens to visit the club, please say hi to Rostini and try her amazing tempeh dish.
I used to come and work at the textile machinery development center in the early 1969s when working for Platt Brothers . The pub had a sign inside about a guy who was banned for being a drunkard. Good memories of the village. Left UK in 1964 and have lived in Africa since then .
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video - Hebden Bridge certainly is a much-changed place since the '60s, but I'm glad this video brought back some memories of the town for you :)
Thanks! Trying to find little towns to break up the drive between Liverpool and York and Hebden Bridge was one of the towns I discovered. Looks like a great little stopover for a bite and a walk. Will be watching your Haworth video next, same reasoning.
You're welcome, and thank you so much for watching! I'm sure you'll love Hebden Bridge - it's one of the loveliest towns in Yorkshire :) Best of luck with the move!
That's the home of my favourite supplier of traditional outdoor clothing, "HEBDEN CORD" (17-23 Old Gate), who sadly went out of business roundabout 2005. I miss my breeks, Tattersall shirts and Norfolk jackets!
A shame to hear about that! But as you say, Hebden Bridge is a great town with some brilliant textile heritage which still remains to this day :) Hopefully you can find some more products of Hebden Cord around and about in the future! Thank you so much for watching - I hope you enjoyed the video!
@@avaburgess9936 Ha ha ha how strange! I'll have to visit Hebden in North Yorkshire too and compare the two - would be interesting indeed... Thank you so much for the info though, it's always great to learn about this kind of thing :)
I’ve spent lots of time wandering around Hebden Bridge and area and it’s really delightful to be there. I’ve taken so many photos as it’s full of beauty and interest. If you’re going do go up to Heptonstall, it’s well worth it. There’s a gorgeous wee flower shop I always loved going to in Hebden and the cafe by the old bridge that caters to dogs is such a cute little place. Don’t make the mistake of thinking the pupcakes are for humans tho.
It is a really delightful place! The scenery is amazing and I agree Heptonstall is just as pretty up on the side of the valley - I'll make sure to make a video there one day - and maybe bring my dog to the little cafe :) Thank you so much for watching!
Absolutely! When it rains it certainly pours in Hebden Bridge, and the rivers and streams can be very unforgiving too! Thank you very much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed this video :)
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I've wondered about giving verbal guides, but I don't know if people prefer to see the town in as raw and natural a way as possible, or would prefer hearing my squeaky voice too... I'm very grateful that you ask though, I might give it a go someday soon :)
Hebden Bridge is an absolutely gorgeous town - one of Yorkshire's most delightful indeed, especially now that they've sorted the mill as you say :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Great video! 👍 What a shame this was recorded on a dismal day in the pandemic. Usually a lot more going on and with a lot more to offer. Also the flooding at the beginning of 2020 was pretty bad too.
Absolutely - I will say that this was recorded around 8am on a Monday morning so before shops would open normally too. But absolutely it's a shame to see the town so quiet - I'll certainly go back when things pick up again :)
The centre of Hebden with many female owned cafes and shops and art it has a non judgemental motherly feel of tranquility and creativity that is definitely influenced by mainly older arty quirky women dominating this area. Its child friendly but very left and Liberal.And for a village it has its own theatre and cinema and plenty of festivals and art classes. It's welcoming to all. The down size are the properties are too much for what they are being an ex mill village. But if you have the money it's worth it tho I wish theys put some cheaper flats and housing in before it gets too middle class as the local hippy types are being pushed out. Lots of famous artists have lived here and it has and is near the Brontes and Gentleman Jack, and is home to Silvia Plaths grave.
Well you wouldn't want to play Pooh Sticks on any of the bridges, haha. You'd never get across t'other side quick enough to see your stick emerging. I've a number of friends who migrated to Hebden Bridge simply because of it's easy going attitude towards lesbians and its 'arty' scene. I'll take a wild guess and suggest that the Shoulder of Mutton hostelry is LGBT friendly given its rainbow coloured benches out front. But whatever one's 'leanings' you'd have to be pretty fit to reside there in order to cope with all the steep streets. Lovely neck of the woods though. Thanks for uploading. You always do a grand job.
Yes I think Pooh Sticks on a rainy day in Hebden Bridge would be quite the challenge! Unless extreme Pooh Sticks is a thing nowadays :) It's a lovely town though as you mention and with a particularly unique identity, and that's one of the things that makes it such an appealing place to visit for so many people! Thank you so much for watching and commenting as always - I'm always so glad to hear you enjoyed the video, and to hear your insightful thoughts on different places around the country :)
As I've mentioned before, - it's a shame for the cyclists who usually pass through this town to get to Hollingworth Lake (LIttleborough, Rochdale) - some of the Hebden Bridge locals seem to enjoy leaving things on the towpath for cyclists, - nails (sticking upwards out of the soil), screws, very large fish hooks, bramble bushes and branches from thorn bushes, - it's not going to do your business much good is it??
It's more lesbians and artist. It's has a very nice vibe because most of the businesses are owned by women. It's small but it's very easy to feel relaxed their as it not a judgmental place. Very relaxed and has some amazing walks surrounding it. It's full of pagans and quirky people tho it's a bit posher than it used to be, lots of middle class vegans.
Hebden is such a tolerant lovely place. I feel the town should be looking at housing some of the refugees crossing the channel. The town I feel will welcome these people unlike other bigoted places.
You make me feel peace, i'm crying also realizing that there's beautiful place over there.. I hope could come over there someday.. 🧡
I hope you get the chance too! Hebden Bridge is such a lovely place, even more so when the sun is shining brightly, but even on a cloudy and quiet morning like this it's still a fascinating place to visit :)
Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
It's a very lovely open minded village. It's a special place in West Yorkshire . You'd love it. Very nice people.
My hometown. Its beautiful.
It is! A gorgeous place to be come rain or come shine :)
Thank you for watching the video - I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you. You even showed me the street I lived in till I was 18, when I left the town in 1966. Such a lot of change, mostly for the better.
Wow, love this video! No talking just walking but subtitles to explain things :-)
Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the video - hopefully it was an immersive experience 'walking' and learning about Hebden Bridge :)

Very interesting video yes the force of water was really frightening

@@LetsWalkUK Oh, that's very kind of you. I did not even expect an answer!
Hebden Beck is located in Hebden North Yorkshire. This river is called Hebden Water.
Oh no! I'm so sorry about the mistake, the maps that I use refer to it as Hebden Beck, but thank you for the clarification :)
Lots of local people simply call it Hebden That "other" town therefore lists an unusually high population!

A great place, but my word, don't forget your mac and umbrella.

GREAT VID
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Hebden Bridge is a gorgeous and fascinating place :)
Thanks for this tour we hope to go to HB this year and also Skipton . Have you thought about giving a verbal guide instead of just info on screen?
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I've wondered about giving verbal guides, but I don't know if people prefer to see the town in as raw and natural a way as possible, or would prefer hearing my squeaky voice too... I'm very grateful that you ask though, I might give it a go someday soon :)
It’s a very nice town, I’ve been there several times, and thankfully now there’s no asbestos mill.
Hebden Bridge is an absolutely gorgeous town - one of Yorkshire's most delightful indeed, especially now that they've sorted the mill as you say :)
Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
Why not use the force of the beck to generate some sort of hydro-electric power for the benefit of the local residents ?
That's a great idea. They have a mill cafe that's run like that.
There isn't anything between Heptonstall and Hebden Bridge that resembles the origins of Hebden, the town started where it is now.
Great video! 👍

Its not called new road its called market street :)

Should have gone to Todmorden instead. More authentic, better landscape, more complex history and now so oh so community focused!
I thought Brighton was the lesbian capital of the UK
Brighton's pretty much LGBT whereas HB seems to attract specifically lesbians.
It's more lesbians and artist. It's has a very nice vibe because most of the businesses are owned by women. It's small but it's very easy to feel relaxed their as it not a judgmental place.
