  • Second Round of Pubs Past and Present, this time walking all of Halifax Road. Sadly, it's very much pubs in the past and nothing else.
    Some of the buildings still exist until going past Lob Mill where railway and roads were responsible for whole streets and buildings to be demolished, including a number of pubs. As you watch you'll see me becoming more and more confused as to where the pubs once were. Any help appreciated.
    As always, we follow the map in Barbara Rudman's Todmorden Pub Trail.
    Which of the lost pubs on Halifax Road do you remember?

    Born and Bred in Todmorden, eventually leaving in the early eighties. I spent many happy hours with friends at possibly all of these pubs at one time or another during my much younger days. One of the most popular pubs I visited was THE ROSE and CROWN ran by Tony and Gina Lyons. Fond memories of many years gone by.

      Thanks for the comment. It was only before I set out to film today that I realised the entire stretch of pubs I was covering had all gone. 😕

    Very interesting video matt. So sad to see that these pubs didn’t survive.

    Great video, difficult task for you on Halifax road……along with many of my age spent some great nights in the pubs seen today. Shame about the Woodman just left to rot.

      Cheers. Yeah it is a shame. Not sure why it's just left like that.

    The New Inn was exactly where you first said at the bottom left of Stackhills Road. I remember it well!

    More remarkable than the pubs were the Landlords the Rose and Crown springs to mind with Stuart Croften and Old dog 😬

    That was really interesting Matt, no idea there were so many pubs! and please consider doing one of the churches of Todmorden?

    • @matparks08

      Cheers 😊 and yes, I think I will. Once more, a lot of long demolished buildings to locate I'd guess

    The Shannon and Chesapeake my nanna Doris Law was landlady here in the 1960's to early 1970's
    She gets a mention in the green book 👍🙂 she left the pub to become a shop owner in Wellington rd .🙂
