Thank you for a lovely and fantastic review of Tod. I've lived here all my life and absolutely love the town. I have seen a lot of changes to the town but the friendliness of the people is still the same.

12:50 Canal boats still use the locks. If you had gone a little bit further you'd have come across a massive wall which holds back the hillside from the canal.

A bit like my home town of Stafford …until the Borough council planning department decided they knew better. “The town will die without a modern shopping mall” they said. They knocked down our historic market for a, now empty, shopping mall. Now they’re trying to buy it back !! Just one of many tragic planning disasters. 😡

I was born in Tod in a farmhouse in the 60's and lived there until I was ten years old. Moved to Huddersfield. Used to live just round the corner from Gledhill street by the old mill. Don't know if it is still there. My gran and uncles lived on Gledhill street. We then moved down Halifax road just next to the river Calder which enjoyed coming into our home when it was full with rain. Used to go to Castle hill primary school where the teachers were my enemy. Fond memories of those days. I remember my Gran telling me about Churchill and I remember there was a little box thing on the park wall where we could put money in to commemorate Churchill. I still have photo's of the town and even some with the first Asians I ever saw. Haven't been back since 1983 so I guess a lot will have changed since then.

You're right, the "Honest John" was a NatWest bank. In the early 1970s I installed a banking terminal in there, at the time the major high street banks were installing computer equipment in their branches for the first time. That green contraption is a guillotine lock gate, the other gate on that lock is a conventional one.

The town centre isn't too bad nor are Lumbutts and Mankinhole areas but one you leave those and go to the areas around Oak Avenue or Lennox Road, it's a different story. Todmorden is one of many small northern towns that suffered after the collapse of the cotton and wool industries. Todmorden also suffers in comparison to nearby Hebden Bridge. That place attracts the tourists and is more popular.
