Title A name given to the resource Hebden Bridge Local History Society Description An account of the resource The Hebden Bridge Local History Society was formed in 1949 and is a section of the Hebden Bridge Literary & Scientific Society which celebrated its hundredth anniversary in 2005. The Society organises a winter programme from September to March on Wednesdays at the Methodist Church in Hebden Bridge at 7:30 pm. The Society's archive and library is housed at The Birchcliffe Centre, Hebden Bridge. The collection is available for members to use on the second Wednesday and fourth Saturday of each month. Donations to the archive are welcomed. Contributions of photos and documents, even from the recent past. A catalogue of the Society's is available on their website.. One of the many projects the Society is currently working on is the Gibson and Sutcliffe papers. The materials had been lying in a room at Croft House in Hebden Bridge, undisturbed for over 50 years. One collection belonged to Abraham Gibson of Greenwood Lee and the other to Sutcliffe & Sutcliffe, architects. Members of the Society are also transcribing gravestones in Heptonstall churchyard, providing easy access to local information for genealogists. Still Image A static visual representation.

Title A name given to the resource Kershaw House, Midgley - HLS01268 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Buildings, Drawing, Halifax Courier Ltd., Kershaw House, Midgley, Places, Sketch Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. 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.
