Title A name given to the resource Broadley Hall, Halifax - HLS01258 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Broadley Hall, Buildings, Drawing, Halifax, Halifax Courier Ltd., Hall, Places, Sketch Description An account of the resource This sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. “One of the beautiful halls of Ovenden Wood, overlooking the Wheatley Valley from the Mount Tabor side. It derives its name from the Broadley or Brodeleghe family. There has evidently been a building here since 1362. Over the doorway of the porch appears ‘IGD, 1632’, but whose initials they are is not known. On the apex of the porch gable, cut in the plaster, is the date 1819, probably noting when improvements were made. There are traces in the field in front of an old coach way. A lovely carved oak fireplace from the lower room, on the right of the illustration, was purchased not very long ago by Mrs Robert Law of Hipperholme and re-erected in a Bristol home. The hall is now divided into six houses and belongs to the Titterington family.” The hall was recorded by Pevsner in 1959 and is described in Arthur Comforts book ‘Ancient Halls in & Around Halifax'; it was demolished in the early 1970s. The house was said to be haunted by the ghost of a young bride who, in a temper tantrum, shut herself in a cupboard and suffocated among the crinolines hanging there. PH/28.
