Title A name given to the resource Old Haugh End, Sowerby - HLS01283 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax Courier Ltd., Old Haugh End, Sketch, Sowerby Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. A 17th century building, with additions of a later period which have destroyed the old arrangement considerably. It is a good example of the evolution of domestic architecture associated with the clothier’s trade for here, in its early days, was the timber structure, followed by the stonework of the 17th century. The old wing, with its Oak Room, is in practically its original state. Over the fireplace in the Oak Room are the initials and date ‘I, 1630, T’. Old Haugh End must ever be associated with Archbishop Tillotson. John was born there in 1630, that event according to tradition occurring in the Oak Room, and old custom being to use the best parlour as a birth room. The house was originally called The Platts.

Walterclough dates back to the 14th century. The hall is on the western hill side overlooking Sunny Vale Gardens and about midway between that resort and the village of Southowram. The hall itself is almost all unoccupied and is in a state of dilapidation, many of the windows being broken and the interior far from attractive. The chief incident of note in its recent history is the fact that for several years it was a well-known boarding school, kept by the Misses Gregory. Many well-known local ladies spent their schooldays, or a portion of them, at Walterclough Hall. The sketch is taken from the south. PH/28.

The name St Anne’s-in-the-Grove is usually associated with Southowram Church but the original title belongs to the residence situated further down the highway, in Brookfoot lane between Southowram Church and Brighouse. It has been owned by the Thompson family, in whose possession it still is, for many generations. There is evidence that the house was standing in 1500. It was on this estate that in the 16th century there was a chapel of ease, built by the de Lacy family but it is recorded that early in the 17th century it was placed among the decayed chapels for want of maintenance. It was pulled down prior to the church being built. The old font from the St Anne’s Chapel is in the porch of the present church which takes its name from the older building, though the church is described in some old documents as ‘chapel-le-briers’.

The history of the Shelf Bentleys has been traced back to the 13th century. This homestead has on its doorway the date and lettering ‘RWL, 1661’, the initials of Richard and his wife and the date of erection, and the stone is understood to encase a timbered structure. In spite of its somewhat dilapidated appearance it has some striking features, the chief being that portion in the centre with the low gable. There are strong evidences that this section was originally intended to be used as a chapel. The sketch gives a back view of the building, now divided into two cottages and a farm house. In the ‘little chapel’ is an interesting fireplace over which is a large coat of arms.

In the largest room of the old hall is a 17th century fireplace and over the south doorway are the initials ‘IP’ and the date 1629 – the initials of John Philippe, the owner of that time.

In the upper part of Ryburn Valley, about a mile behind Rishworth Grammar School. It has really been two houses, the lower half being the older. In association with the latter, the history has been traced to 1546, the Holroyd family having possession. George Holroyd in 1607 began to rebuild or case in stone the home of his father. The porch was added in 1701 by Samuel Lees who became owner in 1699. The property now belongs to Mr J H Wheelwright, of Rishworth. The upper portion was the ancestral home of the Bottomleys of Rishworth. One of them, John, put the building into substantial shape in 1642. The Wheelwright Charity now owns the estate. There are still indications that the barn was used originally as a warehouse or finishing house for cloth and there may have been looms there. PH/28.

Binroyd stands on the north-easterly slopes of Norland. The stream runs close by and Copley village and Sterne Bridge are about equi-distant. The frontage looks out towards the moor and from that point especially the building attracts attention, for its five gables of varied proportions are distinctive and exceptional. The date of the building has not been ascertained but on a mistal, rebuilt between 20 and 30 years ago, two old stones have been inserted over the doorway with the date 1677 and three or four initials. The building has been put down as the early half of the 16th century; there is ample evidence that a much older building of timber has been cased with stone. In one of the upper rooms there is elaborate plaster work acquired in 1913 by the Halifax Antiquarian Society. PH/28.

Title A name given to the resource Norland Lower Hall - HLS01274 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax Courier Ltd., Norland, Norland Lower Hall, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. This hall overlooks Sowerby Bridge at the extremity of the straggling village of Norland. Like Norland Hall and Norland Upper Hall this homestead was erected in its substantial form by a member of the Taylor family in 1634. It has distinctive features. A regret is that the fine porch should have been interfered with and that the central windows should have been spoilt by a door being broken through. The pillars of the porch are remarkable for a curious twist in the fluting, a peculiarity also found in the upper pair of pillars on the porch of Barkisland Hall. While the hall is attractive for its curious windows, its distinctive porch, plain gargoyles and capped gables it is also noted for lovely plaster work. In the main room a gigantic fireplace now fitted with a small modern fixture is adorned with beautiful designs. PH/28.

The hall occupies – or rather occupied – a prominent site on the spur of the hill overlooking Sterne Bridge. In the summer of 1912 lightning struck the roof and the building was unoccupied henceforth. In November 1913 it was sold and London contractors took down the greater portion of the original structure together with a portion of the barn with the intention of rebuilding on the old plan in Addington Park, near Croyden. The original building composed chiefly of oak was erected not later than 1450. About 1672 the wood building was encased with stone. In later years several additions were made but it was always possible to distinguish the new from the old. Some of the fittings of the mediaeval home remained intact all down the ages.

Towards the close of the thirties, Mr Christopher Rawson obtained possession and as the structure was in poor condition he had it practically rebuilt, following closely the original style. The Old Hall is a splendid copy of Elizabethan architecture and the original building would in its day be the finest of the kind in Erringden in which ancient township it is built. The hall can be seen from the Cragg road but in summer it is almost hidden by foliage. Mr W A Simpson-Hinchlifffe, JP who resides in the modern lower hall is owner. PH/28.

Few homesteads are more pleasantly situated than Brearley Hall, which stands on an eminence between Mytholmroyd and Luddenden Foot. Antiquaries tell us that this is the ancient residence of Midgley’s Lord of the Manor and digging very deep into the past, they refer to the time when the Soothills were Lords of Midgley in the 14th Century, with Brearley Hall as their seat. The present building bears the date 1636. There have been important internal alterations, but the exterior is much the same as of yore. Dr John Fawcett’s name will ever be associated with Brearley Hall. For 20 Years - 20 of his most active years – did he reside there and conduct his academy, the fore-runner of Rawdon College. Here received their first training John Foster the essayist, William Ward the missionary, and ‘Sutcliffe of Olney’. Mr Gamaliel Sutcliffe, JP (Heptonstall) is the present owner.

Title A name given to the resource Broadbottom, Mytholmroyd - HLS01270 Subject The topic of the resource Broadbottom Farm, Drawing, Farm, Farm house, Farmhouse, Farms, Halifax Courier Ltd., Mytholmroyd, Places, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. Broadbottom, a cluster of houses rather than a single homestead is an ancient settlement on the Wadsworth side of Calder Valley, on the edge of the wood above Hawksclough. There are many structural features of an unusual character. Until the west end was reconstructed the main building was a long, two-storeyed erection ornamented by two protruding gables, a porch and windows of varying sizes. The existing form probably dates from about 1650 but it is believed that an ancient wooden structure was then encased in stone. The earliest deed associated with Broadbottom is dated 1250. With the exception of the part between the new house and the gable to the left of the drawing the premises are still in use. There is a tradition that the disused part was at one time employed for ecclesiastical purposes. PH/28.

Originally known as simply ‘Mytholmroyd’ and said to have given its name to the village. In a will dated 1549 Richard Draper of ‘Michomroode’ is referred to and in 1608 Henry Draper was in possession. No date or initial has been found and apart from recognised signs of antiquity there is no evidence of the date of the building. There are signs that a portion of the frontage has been rebuilt while the lean-to out-building at the rear of the house is certainly of modern type. The farm occupies a low lying site just beyond Mytholmroyd Station at the foot of the old Sowerby road and opposite the Wesleyan Chapel.

From the point of view of preservation it is one of the finest local old buildings. Almost square, it is adorned by eleven stone-pinnacled gables and two double-storied porches, the one in front containing a lovely rose window the stone work of which is as good as when first fashioned. Some of the original coloured glass and diamond-shaped leaded panes remain, and the exterior restorations have been merely the replacing of a few mullions and sills, and the cutting away of a few stone waterspouts. Of the internal arrangement little of the original style remains. There was possibly an older building on the site, but the house as we now see it was built by James Murgatroyd of Murgatroyd (The Hollins) for his youngest son, Thomas. The initials over the front entrance, ‘TM, AM, 1650’, are those of Thomas Murgatroyd and his wife.

The fact that most local townships have a Great House lends confirmation to the idea that at some time they were used as minor manor homes. The Midgley Great House is thought to have been built about 1650. It now consists of a large farmhouse and two cottages. Many alterations have been made externally and within there is now only one room that can lay any substantial claims to antiquarian interest. The house has, in many ways, been a prominent centre of Midgley's history.

Hodgson (of Parliamentary fame) and the Hortons. Mr J.S. Sunderland is the present owner. Oliver Heywood was for a time sub-tenant with Capt Hodgson, and he described thae hall as 'a sweet habitation near the Chapel of Coley.' On Jan 14th 1672, Heywood preached at Coley Hall. He wrote: 'There was great assembly because none were at Chapel. About one o,clock tidings came that Stephen Ellis had got a warrant and resolved to break us up, which occassioned me to break off and dismiss the. The rest of the day Capt.

Title A name given to the resource Wynter Edge Hall, Hipperholme - HLS01265 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Buildings, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Hall, Hipperholme, Places, Sketch, Wynter Edge Hall Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. The ancient homestead stands on a knoll near Coley Church and commands extensive views, especially southwards. From its exposed position its name is derived. More than six centuries ago the estate passed from the family of Henry of Coley to the Rishworths of Coley. The hall as it now stands has been built in three sections, the middle being the oldest. To the back on the north gable is the double Maltese cross, significant of the fact that the Knights of St John had established a religious settlement or priory there. Many Latin inscriptions once existed about the building, but the only one now obvious is ‘Meliora Spero (we hope for better times) 1693’ on an out building. In a bedroom in the oldest part is excellently preserved plaster work over the fireplace, which includes the coat of arms of the Saltonstalls, owners from 1584 to 1624 (Sir Richard Saltonstall, Bart was Lord Mayor of London in 1597). The owner now is Mr F M foster, and the tenant Mr Jasper Rushworth.

Title A name given to the resource St Giles House, Lightcliffe - HLS01264 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Lightcliffe, Places, Sketch, St Giles House Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. The building is a fine, antiquated, ivy-clad, pointed gable house, the owner of which is Mr Richard Kershaw of Crow Nest, Lightcliffe and the present tenant Mr Maurice Wayman. There are records of the Schofields of Giles’ House from 1529 to 1655, when Thomas Netherwood came into possession and rebuilt it, ‘TN - 1655’ being inscribed over the doorway. Some 80 years later it was partly rebuilt. There are traditions as to how the house received its name. One is that it came from an ancient well nearby, dedicated to St Giles, patron saint of wells, but the old deeds and documents call the place simply ‘Giles’ House’ and the ‘Saint’ has been added within recent years – since the District Council widened the adjoining road and named it ‘St Giles’ Road’.

Title A name given to the resource Holdsworth House, Holmfield - HLS01263 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Buildings, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Holdsworth House, Holmfield, Places, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. Passing up the main road from Holmfield Station to the district known as Holdsworth, attention is attracted by iron gates at the entrance to the remains of what was once an avenue. This leads to Holdsworth House, a fine relic of old-time architecture, the external appearance, except for the ivy-covered front, being little changed from the original design. The southern and western gateways are interesting studies, and the house itself, built in three gables, is an imposing structure. A stone over the western gate bears the date 1680 but it is thought the house dates back to 1598. A cross, over one of the south gables, indicates that it was at one time part of the possessions of the Knights of St John of Jerusalem. PH/28.

Title A name given to the resource Staups House, Shibden - HLS01262 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Places, Shibden, Sketch, Staups House Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. One of several old homesteads in Shibden valley. Staups dates back well over 300 years, for documentary evidence tells of a John Bentley compounding for the copyhold land there in 1607. In 1688 died John Crowther and they are his initials that are found over the main doorway – ‘IC 1684’ being carved there in a decorative panel. An interesting feature, especially to Freemasons, is the appearance of masons’ marks as the decoration for the lid of the soot box in the oven on the very old and spacious range in the first of the three dwellings into which the house is now divided. The old beams and other century-worn wood are also reminders of builders of long ago. Mr John Lister is the owner (Miss Lister purchased the property in 1834) and historic associations will not be disturbed more than is necessary.

Title A name given to the resource High Sunderland, Halifax - HLS01261 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., High Sunderland, Places, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. A unique building, crumbling to pieces; but for unsightly buttresses some of the walls would fall; the pillars and figures on the south porch are crumbling and tottering, while the gateway, with its grotesque figures and beautiful carving is but a relic of former beauty. Its history is wrapped up with the Sunderland family for centuries. Architectural features apart, it has an interest as being one of the many homesteads said to have been the original of Emily Bronte’s ‘Wuthering Heights’. Whatever be the claims of other places, High Sunderland certainly gave Emily her description. Emily, who was teaching at Law Hill, Southowram (1836-7) would probably wander about Shibden Valley and High Sunderland must have had many attractions for her.

Title A name given to the resource Shibden Hall, Halifax - HLS01260 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Places, Shibden Hall, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. Oldest of local homesteads, rich with features illustrative of many centuries of house architecture internal and external, it is fitting that Shibden Hall should be in the possession of Mr John Lister, MA, president of the Halifax Antiquarian Society. The older part of the present hall was probably built in the first quarter of the 15th century. In 1504 a Robert Savile encased the rough-hewn beams and ceiling boards of the present dining room with thin, neatly-finished oak wainscoting. He also put in a fine series of stained glass in a window of stone mullions, substituting wooden frames. These glasses Mr Lister considers almost unique. The same owner encased the house body with stone, though much of the original exterior timber work still exists. Alterations have been made since, but of a small nature, except the building of the western tower, kitchen and offices in the ‘thirties by Miss Lister, the then owner. Considering its great age, very few families have held Shibden Hall. The first traceable owner was one William Otes, whose family were in occupation as early as 1410. Subsequent owners were the Saviles, the Waterhouses and since the early years of the 17th century, the Listers. Here was born General William Fawcett GCB, April 30, 1727, son of William Fawcett, husband of Martha, eldest daughter of James Lister. His distinguished military career was begun in Flanders. Honours, well earned, were showered upon him, culminating in a position tantamount to commander-in-chief. At Shibden Hall too, Miss R M Kettle during a visit wrote ‘the Mistress of Langdale Hall’, a novel with much local colouring. Mr John Lister, the present resident and owner, an antiquary of wide repute, has probably contributed more to our knowledge of local history than any other man. His home is a veritable store house of olden lore and fact.

Title A name given to the resource Willow Hall, Cote Hill - HLS01259 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Cote Hill, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Places, Sketch, Willow Hall Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. Built about 1610, Upper Willow Hall (that delightful old-world building at Cote Hill) is undoubtedly the successor of a much older building. Although in Skircoat Manor, it is thought to have been of such importance once as to have been the centre of a smaller manor. A family of the name of King, or Kinge, were the original owners and over what was once the front entrance (now a window) is inscribed ‘James Kinge builded this’. Wainhouses, Listers, Akeds and Dysons were in turn owners. The Dysons were cloth merchants and much of their work was done in the adjoining out-buildings, now a laundry. One part of the old hall belongs to and is occupied by Mr Enoch Hill, JP. Inside there has been much modernising, probably when alterations were made to that part facing Sowerby Bridge. The part to be seen from Burnley Road is untouched.
