St Thomas á Becket, Heptonstall, West Yorkshire.
Grade ll* listed.
Looking West.

The original church at Heptonstall was dedicated to St Thomas a Becket and was built between 1256 and 1260. Later adaptations gave it two naves, two aisles and two chantry chapels as well as a tower. Following a storm in 1847 the west face of the tower fell away. Some repairs took place and the church was used up to 1854 when the present church was completed. The new church was consecrated on 26th October 1854 by Bishop Longley of Ripon and dedicated to St Thomas the Apostle, whilst the older church remains as a shell.

2-6 Lees Road, Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire, mid c19.
A double-decker terrace.

Because the Upper Calder Valley is so steep-sided, there’s very little space on the valley bottom for housing. When Hebden Bridge expanded during the 19th century, double-decker terraces were developed, consisting of underdwellings and overdwellings, running along the contours of the valley and up and down the slopes.
