How interesting. My Great Grandfather used to be the vicar here! Rev. G. G. Dawson. I still have cups and saucers with the church on them.

Pure nostalgia, hic! 😊 U.K

Any photos of Legrams Lane near St Andrews Mills BD7 from Pre 1980? Showing building that got demolished. Would be great to see them.

Btilliant vid

Our beautiful town. The house we bought and live in was buit in 1892 and i often ponder on whet life was like back then. This film clip gives me a brief window in to that time, who knows maybe one of those workers lived in my house. I am such a dreamer,lol. All the best to you and yours.

Castle hill pub is demolished in 2000 in 24 years ago

The video was fantastic . What made it so much better was the wonderful music. Can you let me know what it is please? Love from Oz

What drone is that

My father is buried in that cemetery

Brilliant thank you 😊

Great compilation. Many thanks.

10 out of 10, for such wonderfully uplifting theme/instrumental music to blend in with this video, filmed above what'll become a newly transformed huddersfield railway station as part of the vital yet crucial work in the form of the transpennine route upgrade out there.

kmc have no shame

😊😊👍👍❤❤

10/10 brilliant, thanks.

My ancestors didn´t behave very well … Thank you for this video. War is never a solution!

Wonderful video , Thank you for posting this, as I didnt know The Germans were involved so early in the First World War.

WonderfulWonderful, I

Brill loved the music too

“The day that shook the world” (1975) movie about the kiIIing of Franz Ferdinand, six months before the bombardment of NE England.

Very well done , extremely interesting to a Scarborougholic like myself

Is it a Kenyon and Mitchell film?

enchanting

Never thought of Deighton as an epicentre of trans Pennine commerce. Why would anyone be investing in this? One of the mysteries of the administration.

Huddersfield was beautiful it's a dive now

Born in 61, our house was at the rear of the Maypole. 135 Bradley boulevard

amazing memories thanks

im a leeds lad, born there 1961 and proud to be so, &, a lot of these places i know well, Even though many of the photo's were before my time. cheers for uploading.

thanks for this, interesting to see how places i know, and a once great industrial city has now changed. i have known bradford well since the 70's, and have lived in one of the better areas on the outskirts for almost 30 years now, but whenever anyone asks me where i live, i don't want to even acknowledge bradford at all, it's joke and a shithole now, and we all know why. the ridiculous woke 'city of culture' award for 2025 is totally pathetic, given to pacify just one culture, and it's not ours. i rarely go anywhere near the city now unless forced to, in part coz the standard of driving has to be the worst anywhere in the country.

Went there once in the 80s to watch oxford what a long trip😊

What you see in theses photos, was a thriving prosperous Huddersfield, with superb architectural buildings & local businesses, now all destroyed by successive incompetent, councils, this is my town, having lived & worked in Huddersfield for the last 56 years, was in the town centre last Saturday & there is nothing left except cheap ££ shops, tat shops & the latest phenomenon Vape shops, it's a crying shame, even Brighouse has more going for it over Huddersfield Town center 😕😕

Born in bradford in 1958 was dragged away in 67 to live in lancashire we went back on a visit in 1973 the house we lived in on st stevens road had gone but my old school ryan st juniors was still standing watching this brought back memories

I remember the old Huddersfield station buffet. Used to pop in there at lunch time for a treat. Did a great steak pie dinner. Catching the Newcastle loco afterwards. Both now gone! As you say now o my memories buried in time and dust! And eventually even memories of that time and place will be gone. Only images and writing will remain. Great images of a time once common now no more!

There are actual people in some of the pictures carrying shopping bags 😅😅

What's the big place at 4.43?

Crying shame to have gotten rid of this line. Would be useful today. It'll never be rebuilt.

It has taken me back to places I had forgotten. My granddad's old house in Holbeck. It was a back to back with three loos in a block, next doo but one. And we never used the end one, as it wasn't clean (or that is what we were told). And I remember ripping the newspaper into squares and threading string through to wipe your bum with. I even remember the man who lit the gas lights in the streets. Where we lived we had electric street lighting. God I'm getting old. Does anyone know if there are photos of the cooking plant that straddled the road from bramley to town? As a little one, I remember it looking amazing on dark winter nights with flames all around.

It's a shame to see such a magnificent building so derelict.

Very impressive. Lots of wealthy people buried there obviously. I wonder when they'll build houses on it? Nowhere is safe.

Just popped up myself do scout for a potential photoshoot. Not a good idea in August, weeds and nettles are shoulder high! Some of the electrical fittings suggest 1960s/70s. I'll be back! 👍

The stone was sold to a building contractor from the south of England by the then owner whose planing permission to turn it into an takeaway was rejected by the city Council. In response to this he sold the ston, he was ordered by the council to rebuild the castle hill pub using the original stones wear posable. Put because of his religion he refused to do so hens Huddersfield lost a marvellous public house.

Subbd from Issan Thailand Owt Leeds rd is good with me

Went to Leeds Road a few times watching the Clarets. Fine ground and I think our Longside was designed by the same architects who designed Huddersfield’s. Great memories in our then second division promotion season 1972 👍

One thing stands out. How clean and tidy Huddersfield was. The Parks full of flowering tulips and smart, unlike to day. What we have lost.

HTFC ALWAYS WILL REMEMBER THEM BECAUSE HERBERT CHAPMAN STARTED THERE HIS CAREER AND HE; PROVED TO BE S AN ALL TIME GREAT, WASN;T HAROLD WILSON, THE FORMER PRIME MINISTER A LOYAL SUPPPORTER OF THEM, ANS HUFC HAD HIS SHARE OF VERY GOOD PLAYERS IN HIS HISTORY.

A magnificent set of photos of my favourite station ( at least the wagon lifting tower is still there as a mini museum). Spent five great years there as a diesel loco service eng’r, very sad it was ultimately demolished. Best times then with Gresley and Peppercone locos etc.

Some very famous people come from Huddersfield no 1 most favourite person the chuckle brothers 😆😇

Thank you for the effort you put into these videos. Can anyone identify the large house at 11:17 please?

I enjoyed that, thank you. I am a Yorkshire lad and lived in Halifax for some time.

I love castle hill pub
