Wow fascinating historical walk. Great research with photos done on the factory site. I saw the 'happy bench', awesome idea to spread joy in the community. New subbie # 378.

I'm so pleased you enjoyed the walk. There's a wonderful story behind the happy benches. A lady sold her house in Wilsden to buy a yellow van and travels around the country creating the happy benches. If you search "yellow van of love" on FB & YT I'm sure you'll find her. Thank you very much for your support and the kind comment.

Just found all your videos on Wyke and Low Moor, and thought I would share some of my family history. My grandparents Richard & Georgina Winduss, lived in the modern part of Holly Hall, whilst the owner, Polly Barrowclough, lived in the Hall. I never knew her husband. Polly was very much part of our family as she had no living relatives, and she taught me plenty of card games whilst I was very young. When Polly died, my grandparents moved into the main Hall, and my Uncle Trevor and his wife and daughter moved into the modern extensions. Eventually my uncle and his family moved into High Fernley Hall, which is featured in your Headless Horseman video. I used to live in Holdsworth Street, which was demolished and replaced by the Wycoller estate, and I used the snicket all the time to get from my house to my Grandparents. At this time, there were fields all to the left of the snicket, no housing at all, as I used to climb the wall and cut across the field into the back garden of Holly Hall. My dad attended the school which was at the bottom of the lane, and the juction of Storr Hill, was Stobarts until recently. Hope you found this interesting. Sharon.

Thanks so much for posting your really interesting comment Sharon. I do enjoy reading other people's stories and especially family details like this. I'm sure many others will have a great deal of interest with what you have shared and great that your family history crosses over into the other Wyke walk. I've heard from others too who used to attend Carr Lane School. Fascinating stuff and again thanks for taking the time to share on here.

Thanks for the video, it brought back many happy memories as I lived in the paper shop on Huddersfield Rd , corner of Butcher street for ten years in the 60's. I was lucky enough to take the morning paper round down Storr Hill and my last one was to Holly Hall cottage. The areas of Markfield were one of my playgrounds prior to the houses being built. Thanks for sharing

Just found time to watch this. Glad I did. Again it's an area I know well but you pointed out things I didn't know such as the garage that was once a school and used for the mortuary after the early 1900's explosion. My father was very young at the time but he remembered well that they all went up to the top field at Edge End Farm in Buttershaw to be away from breaking windows etc. Probably about 2 miles away as the crow flies and long before all the houses of the estate were there. I've used the footpath you mentioned, from down near the household waste site, but didn't realise how close I was to where the explosion happened, even though I've seen the plaque on the Spen Greenway. You pointed out Low Moor House. My uncle lived there at one time, so I have been inside a number of times. He was a doctor and his practice was also based there for a while, with another surgery in my Grandma's old shop at the bottom of Alderson Street in Buttershaw. It moved into Cleckheaton Road and then became the Low Moor Medical Center which you also pointed out. I'll pass on some of the info next time I lead a walk in the area.

Thanks for taking the time to add your wonderful insights into some of the locations covered in the film. Low Moor House certainly looks an interesting building from the outside. I'm glad it still survives unlike its near neighbour Odsal House another building that has gone and like LM House had the ironworks connection. Thank you for watching the films.

Low Moor Police Station was on Common Road. The building was still there when I left in 2014. It's opposite Hill Top School

Thanks very much for this information Robert. I have just used google street maps and I'm guessing it is the large detached stone building with the date stone "1891" on the upper front. Would make sense why Polly was taken there being in such close proximity to Harold Park.

@@DodgersTrips My dad took Shirley to a Berni Inn in the late 60's before they went to a local reggae bar and danced into the early hours. My dad wouldn't let her pay for anything and told me that when they returned to his home in Oakenshaw he was rewarded with a night he would never forget. A car collected her the following morning and before it set off she said to him "look out for my next single". She released "Big Spender" a couple of months later and sent my dad a signed copy which he still has to this day.

Hi David, I'm glad you enjoyed the old photographs. I am guessing you are referring to the aftermath of the explosion. It must have been terrifying to have heard it and it had an impact on so many people far and wide. It was nice to hear from you, thanks for watching and taking the time to add your comment.
