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.

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

  2. 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. ;)

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

  4. 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.

Photographs don't have to be "good" photographs to be memorable. Sometimes all they need to do is to capture a moment in time,...
