What was it like?

Also, Gareth, are you like Calderdale in the 70s, or do you just approve of it?

i...dont know.

do you know that part of the world at all?

hebden bridge is a heritagized wiccan clotted cream and tea tourist board package these days, though its bourgeois-ruralist-bohemian bent has been theres since...the 20s?

i prefer halifax

its an interesting part of england, it looks east, to leeds/bradford, and then, somewhere, it falls away into mancunian orbit

it also has the todmorden tor, one of england greatest structures

I think I understand this intuively, but it's hard to get quite right - I have often felt that if I had a name like this it would be 'Cornmarket Street'.

Are there pictures of the tor?
