Milltown, Yorkshire


I suspect that I took this photograph fifty years ago and it is so obviously a West Yorkshire milltown. But which one? I recognise it and I don't recognise it; it is familiar and it is different. The valley, the terraced houses, the mills: for the moment we will just call it Milltown but hopefully someone will come forward with a more accurate description.

    Great photo. Not the Yorkshire we think of with James Herriot.

    Amazing! Love the terraced houses....lots to look at there. It would make a great "I Spy" game. List 20 things in the photograph and try to seek them out. ;)

    No doubt whatsoever - Hebden Bridge - aka Centre of the Universe :-)

    I suppose there is a need to pack all those buildings in there so close together. It does look like the mill part is correct in the naming.
