Liversedge is a township in the former parish of Birstall, in the metropolitan borough of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, Liversedge lies between Cleckheaton and Heckmondwike. The Kirklees ward is now called Liversedge and Gomersall with a population at the 2011 Census of 19,420.
Liversedge comprises several settlements that are all distinctive. Norristhorpe clings to one side of the Spen Valley, looking over the town of Heckmondwike. Roberttown is on the opposite side of the A62. Millbridge is the geographical centre of Liversedge and, with the neighbouring village of Flush, is the place the mills of the woollen industry stood. Towards Cleckheaton are Hightown, Littletown and Popeley Hill. Liversedge has a Wakefield postcode (WF15). Some areas have a Wakefield dialling code (01924) while others have a Bradford dialling code (01274).
Liversedge is recorded in the Domesday Book as Livresec, a manor belonging to Radulf, a vassal of Ilbert de Lacy. There are two possible etymologies for the name: from the Old English Lēofheres-ecg meaning 'a ridge or edge belonging to Lēofhere'; or, alternatively, the first element could have originally been *Lēfer-, related to the Old English word lifer used in the sense of 'thick clotted water', and the second element secg, 'a bed of reeds or rushes'.
Liversedge has a church that was built at the time of the Battle of Waterloo. Healds Hall, formerly the Spenborough Museum, is now a hotel. In the days of Charlotte Brontë it was home to Hammond Roberson whom she transformed into the Reverend Matthewman Helstone in her novel Shirley. Spen Beck runs through Liversedge.
There is only one road sign in the whole area directing motorists towards Liversedge: on the A649 Halifax Road from Bailiff Bridge, with no directions from either the Huddersfield or Dewsbury and Batley sides of the settlement. Liversedge F.C. are a football club in the football league pyramid, playing in the Northern Counties East Football League Premier Division for the 2017–18 season. They play at Clayborn, 0.6 miles (1 km) from Cleckheaton town centre.

Places to see in ( Dewsbury - UK )
Dewsbury is a minster town in the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees, in West Yorkshire, England. It is to the west of Wakefield, east of Huddersfield and south of Leeds. It lies by the River Calder and an arm of the Calder and Hebble Navigation.
Historically a part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, after undergoing a period of major growth in the 19th century as a mill town, Dewsbury went through a period of decline. More recently there has been redevelopment of derelict mills into flats, and regenerating of city areas.
In Saxon times, Dewsbury was a centre of considerable importance. The ecclesiastical parish of Dewsbury encompassed Huddersfield, Mirfield and Bradford. Ancient legend records that in 627 Paulinus, the first Bishop of York, preached here on the banks of the River Calder. Numerous Anglian graves have been found in Dewsbury and Thornhill.
Dewsbury Minster lies near the River Calder, traditionally on the site where Paulinus preached. Some of the visible stonework in the nave is Saxon, and parts of the church also date to the 13th century. The tower houses Black Tom, a bell which is rung each Christmas Eve, one toll for each year since Christ's birth, known as the Devil's Knell, a tradition dating from the 15th century. The bell was given by Sir Thomas de Soothill, in penance for murdering a servant boy in a fit of rage. The tradition was commemorated on a Royal Mail postage stamp in 1986.
Throughout the Middle Ages, Dewsbury retained a measure of importance in ecclesiastical terms, collecting tithes from as far away as Halifax in the mid-14th century. John Wesley visited the area five times in the mid-18th century, and the first Methodist Society was established in 1746. Centenary Chapel on Daisy Hill commemorates the centenary of this event, and the Methodist tradition remained strong in the town.
Dewsbury is situated between Leeds and Bradford 8 miles (13 km) to the north, Huddersfield a similar distance to the south west, and Wakefield 6 mi (10 km) east. Its proximity to these major urban centres, the M1 and M62 motorways and its position on the Huddersfield Line, served by the TransPennine Express, have contributed to its popularity as a commuter town. Dewsbury is part of the West Yorkshire Urban Area, although its natural boundaries are not well defined, with built up areas of the town running into Batley, Heckmondwike and Ossett.
Dewsbury has a number of districts with different geographical and socio-economic patterns, they are, Chickenley, Crackenedge, Dewsbury Moor, Earlsheaton, Eastborough, Eightlands, Flatts, Ravensthorpe, Savile Town, Shaw Cross, Scout Hill, Thornhill Lees, Westborough, Westtown. Batley Carr, Hanging Heaton and Staincliffe have areas which lie in both Dewsbury and neighbouring Batley. Thornhill, Briestfield and Whitley are part of Dewsbury. Thornhill was annexed in 1910.
Dewsbury bus station serves the town of Dewsbury. The bus station is managed and owned by Metro (West Yorkshire PTE). The bus station was rebuilt in 1994 with a main passenger concourse and 19 bus stands. The town is served on the railway network by Dewsbury railway station.

Driving Around Hebden Bridge Calderdale Calder Valley West Yorkshire United Kingdom
Hebden Bridge is a market town in the Upper Calder Valley in West Yorkshire, England.
Surrounded by breathtaking countryside, Hebden Bridge has been voted as the fourth funkiest town in the world best small market town in the UK and the greatest town in Europe.
Wander the creative, bohemian streets of Hebden Bridge, and you can feel the influence of the writers and artists who flocked to the town around the 70s and 80s.
The pretty town is centrally located at the West of West Yorkshire, in between Halifax and Todmorden, making it popular with people who work between Manchester and Leeds.
From artisan shops and inspiring galleries to organic pavement cafés and charming picture houses, the town is justifiably proud of its artistic identity. Just a few minutes away you will find pretty wooded valleys and picturesque heather moorland.
This town has nothing to offer anyone!
I visit what is supposed to Yorkshire's most deprived town Dewsbury. The town seems somewhat lost and every other shop is shut or left to rot. The most Dewsbury has to offer is gambling. I deffo took a gamble going there.

The Secret Charm of Staithes: Revealed | 4K
This is Staithes, The Secret Charm of Staithes: Revealed
Clinging to the hillside, Staithes is an unmissable destination to explore. From the winding cobbled streets to the charming 18th century cottages, you’ll find this coastal village is full of character.
Staithes was once one of the largest fishing ports in the North East, now this hillside gem is a treasured based for exploring Yorkshire’s cliff top paths and discovering the delights of rock pooling and fossil hunting on the small sandy beach.
Staithes is a charming, traditional fishing village on the North Yorkshire Coast, it is the perfect place to enjoy some time beside the sea.
The North Yorkshire seaside town of Staithes is just 10 miles from Whitby, it embodies many of the reasons why seaside towns hold such appeal. Once one of the busiest fishing ports on the North East coast, Staithes boasts a long proud history as the one-time home of famous Royal Navy captain and explorer, Captain James Cook. Staithes is approximately 22 minutes drive from Whitby along the coast.
A Brief History of Staithes
Remnants of Cook’s time here can be seen in many of the tourist attractions of today including Captain Cook & Staithes Heritage Centre. A recreation of the shop in which James Cook worked during his residency here, the museum is a treasure-trove of over 200 books, engravings, letters, medals and more, providing an insight into his incredible life and career, as well as into Staithes itself.
You can also visit ‘Captain Cook’s Cottage’, and the Captain Cook Inn – a lovely pub/restaurant and hotel overlooking the sea. Famous for its real ales and great food, which includes a range of vegetarian and wheat-free options, you are sure to enjoy a relaxing stay, whether simply enjoying a bite to eat or staying the night. Don’t forget to try their house ale, the Northern Navigator, brewed especially for the Captain Cook Inn by the nearby North Yorkshire Brewery.
Staithes Art History
There is so much to do in Staithes, for both young and old. Fans of art and history will love strolling through the pretty town’s narrow cobbled streets and paying a visit to the elegant Staithes Art Gallery.
Staithes is a magnet for artists who come to admire the beautiful coastal scenery, traditional fishing scenes and village ambience, and immortalise them on canvas. The advent of the railway in 1883 brought a host of artists to Staithes including Hannah Hoyland, Fred Mayor and Harold Knight. Many paintings from local and visiting artists are on display at the gallery throughout the year – look out for special exhibitions and showcases too.
Things to do in Staithes
Exploring and Walking
A popular activity whilst in Staithes is to explore the old village through its fascinating alleys and ginnels. Winding through the village’s cottages and cobbled streets, each alley boasts a quaint name, such as ‘Dog Loup Alley’ – the narrowest alley in the world at just 18 inches wide! You will discover a different side to Staithes through each alley you visit with lots of opportunities for taking a unique and quirky photograph of Staithes from all angles!
Rockpooling and Fossil Hunting
A trip to the seaside wouldn’t be complete without a bit of rock pooling in the abundant rock pools left at low tide between Staithes and Port Mulgrave, many of which are teeming with life that children especially will love to seek out. You will certainly find plenty of fossils and tiny marine creatures whilst exploring, and if you are lucky, you may even spot some seals sunning themselves along the shore!
Staithes sits on what is known as the ‘Dinosaur Coast’, making it a favourite with fossil hunters, palaeontologists and dinosaur fans from across the country. You can choose to go on an organised fossil hunting trip or, for the more experienced, explore independently in and around Staithes and Runswick Bay. If visiting as a family, children will love their finds of ‘fools’ gold’ – little nuggets of Iron pyrite which, to the untrained eye, look just like the real thing!

Drive Around Batley Kirklees West Yorkshire United Kingdom
I spent couple of hours in the Batley, Kirklees in West Yorkshire, England. In this video you will see me driving my car around Batley.
Batley is a market town in the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees, in West Yorkshire, England. Batley lies south-west of Leeds, north-west of Wakefield and Dewsbury, south-east of Bradford and north-east of Huddersfield. Batley is part of the Heavy Woollen District.
Dewsbury Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of West Yorkshire, and around nine miles south, and slightly west, of central Leeds, is the town of Dewsbury.
The name 'Dewsbury' derives from 'Dewi's fortification', where Dewi is an Old Welsh personal name (although the England-Wales border is around 70 miles away). Geographically, the town centre lies just north of the River Calder.
It is believed that a place of worship has stood where Dewsbury Minster is located (at the start of the walk) from as early as 627 AD when St Paulinus preached at the crossing point of the River Calder. The minster itself dates from the 13th century, albeit with much rebuilding work in the late 19th century. In 1809 the Reverend Patrick Brontë was made a curate at Dewsbury Minster. He would later become a father to six children including authors Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë.
In the early 14th century a royal charter was granted by Edward II for a weekly market at nearby Thornhill, before moving to Dewsbury. Established in 1318, Dewsbury Market was hailed as one of the finest in the north. When a plague swept through the area in the late 16th century the market closed. It would not be until 1740 that it was reopened, following public demand.
Following an Act of Parliament in 1699, the rivers Aire and Calder were made navigable by cargo boats. This effectively provided Dewsbury with a trade link to the North Sea and continental Europe. A subsequent Act of Parliament in 1758 paved the way for the Calder and Hebble Navigation, which would later link up to the Rochdale Canal. In short, this meant that Dewsbury was well poised for growth following the Industrial Revolution. Several textile mills started to appear in the town - some of which can be seen today, albeit repurposed for other functions.
In 1848 the railway arrived in Dewsbury courtesy of the London and Northwestern Railway. This ushered in a period of growth in the town whose population rose from around 4,500 in 1801 to around 30,000 in 1891. Today the station provides direct services to Leeds in around 15 to 20 minutes and to Manchester in around 40 to 80 minutes, depending on stops.
From 1886 to 1889 Dewsbury Town Hall was built. The building is Grade II listed, and is presently used as a 700-seater concert hall alongside function and meeting rooms.
