As well as the Holmfirth Filming Locations we will show you round the town including some of the heritage blue plaque locations, the famous Holmfirth Picturedrome and the various pubs, restaurants, businesses and places in the Town Centre.
Holmfirth is a small town on the A6024 Woodhead Road in the Holme Valley, within the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England. Centred upon the confluence of the Holme and Ribble rivers, Holmfirth is 6 miles south of Huddersfield and 13 miles northeast of Glossop.
Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, Holmfirth was once a centre for pioneering film-making by Bamforth & Co., which later switched to the production of saucy seaside postcards. Between 1973 and 2010 both Holmfirth and the Holme Valley became well known as the filming location of the BBC's situation comedy Last of the Summer Wine.
Holmfirth (and the surrounding countryside) is the setting for the BBC's long-running comedy Last of the Summer Wine. Thousands of tourists flock to the area each year to enjoy scenery and locations familiar from the series. Filming of the TV Slaithwaite-based drama, Where the Heart Is, had also taken place in and around the area.
Holmfirth constitutes a town of its own almost seven miles (11 km) south of the larger town of Huddersfield. While the town of Holmfirth itself is comparatively small, it is surrounded by several hamlets and villages.
These neighbouring settlements are often collectively referred to as "Holmfirth" and include:- Austonley, Arrunden, Burnlee, Cinderhills, Cliff, Deanhouse, Netherthong, Gully, Flushhouse, Hade Edge, Thongsbridge, Upperthong and Washpit. Many of these are located on Cartworth Moor.
Shown in over 25 countries, Last of the Summer Wine is the longest running sitcom in the world. Filming took place in Holmfirth and across the Holme Valley. You'll recall familiar scenes when you visit Nora Batty's steps, Sids Café and the Last of the Summer Wine Exhibition.

Thanks for this. I really enjoyed it. Holmfirth was my hometown from 1970 to 2000. Prior to the filming of ‘Last of the Summer Wine’ much of the infrastructure was in poor condition. The Woollen mills were all in full swing. The river Holme used to run with many different colours when the dye works washed out their vats This all changed when the series started to be filmed there. The town blossomed and now the mills have all been turned into apartments and very nice ones too! I well remember walking around the town snd seeing the actors in the series. They almost. became part of the scenery and apparently loved. being there. As you said Bill Owen is buried in St John’s Churchyard at Upperthong. He said that he considered it his spiritual home. Next to him now is Peter Sallis who played Cleggy. The countryside around the town is stunning and well worth a visit in its own right.
Thanks Graham!
One of the things I wasn’t expecting was the scenery as I drove towards Holmfirth
It absolutely blew my mind!
I live in North Sheffield so not far away at all but had never known just how amazingly scenic the whole area is!
I will be in Holmfirth in May. My first trip to England. Looking forward to it!
I have every episode recorded and watch at least one every night. I actually cry every time I watch the one where beloved Compo died.
Yeah sad times
My favourite show as well.
That episode was on 2 nights ago and it's Compo's funeral tonight. Will cry again, even after seeing it twice already. XXX
Pamela Rohani I’ve cried buckets of tears watching Compo’s funeral.. and the words to the theme music are so special ! Would love to visit Holmeworth!
@@marisamuia678 Yes, Marisa. Those three episodes were very emotional!
Would love to visit. Last of the Summer Wine has helped keep me sane and laughing through the lockdowns!
So funny and so many episodes to enjoy!
its beautiful place i live an hour away and been a few times worth a visit
Beautiful old buildings with so many stories to tell.❤👍🏻👍🏻
My favourite T V programme of all time. Cleggy , Compo and Foggy
So funny that programme! Who was your favourite character
Compo
Bill Owen 🌹
Thank you people of Holmfirth for allowing your town to be used for so many years to bring lasting pleasure to so many people,
Well said!
I only started watching this last year. Didn’t realise how funny it really was. The best comedy I’ve seen in a long time. 👍
Well said!
Well said and the show is a welcome rediscovery for me...I always watched it with my grandfather who loved it. With locations etc the series was marvelous viewing
Now we have had a general tour of Holmfirth, how about a specifically "Last Of The Summer Wine" video? Including you going up the steps beside "Sid's Cafe" that the three main characters often walked up. There are surely several filming locations you could show us like the adjacent homes of Howard/Pearl and Cleggy. Suggest you start at the bus station so that visitors intending to come by bus can get their bearings. I'm from London with a daughter in Leeds and I did visit (or try to visit) Homfirth in the summer of 2018. I was on the 314 bus from Huddersfield and around a mile short of the bus station, the rain came bucketing down. No umbrella. I ended up having to wait in the shelter of the bus station and let two buses towards Huddersfied go before I got on the third one with rain still teeming down. Planned 2-3 hour walkaround abandoned
Oh no!! That’s English weather for you eh!!
Will try and do a full summer wine video for you 👍
I was born in Holmfirth and lived there until I was 16 years old when we emigrated to Australia. I visited the town in 2000 and realised what a tourist location it had become, quite different to when I lived there. I really enjoyed your walk around the town and it brought back many fond memories.
Jackson Bridge, where Cleggy's house is, and the White Horse, is small for a walk but worth it. You could go onto Holmbridge - 2 miles up the road - from there. Holmbridge is a lovely village.
Ah thank you - not been there yet!
Will definitely visit one day on my bucket list. Thank you for filming this TV historical place.
You’re welcome - thank you so much for watching this one ❤️
This show is like therapy for me
Same!
talleyrand xlll me too c
Same I can watch it all the time
Yes. 😁😁😁. Can always have a good laugh 😁😁😁😁😁
@@debrahitchman416 True!!
I've grown into these characters. From watching them as a young man to a sixty year old. Still happy to take a tin bath on to a lake. We're not here long, one has to be enjoy as much as possible.
Very true Ron! ❤️
It's so nice to see this historic town with so much history behind other than Summer Wine and I myself have been here many times and it is good of you to post this video for many to watch in the comfort of their own homes.
Thank you Darryll that's much appreciated my friend 👍
Especially during COVID when we’re not as free to travel for now. Finding this channel is WONDERFUL for my sanity! I hope & pray we return to normal very soon.
Brings back memories. Visited with my Dad in the 90s. Still have the video of it. 😎
I’ve had some real interest from Summer Wine fans on this one Lee! Think they’re fanatical 🙂
Gimbal Walk TV Enjoyed that one myself. Little guilty pleasure before a day of editing myself. 😎
Watched your hot dog one this morning - thought it was great - some great shots and editing - you’re doing a cracking job mate ❤️
ah, that was grand, loved watching that, thank you for posting it.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching my channel 👍
I'm from Denmark and I have been in Holmfirth a few times:-) I think that Peter Sallis is also buried in Holmfirth, next to Compo (Bill Owen)... If you visit Compo's grave, remember to bring some cigarette butts to put in compo's wellies:-)
Ha ha yes!!
Yes, Peter Sallis (Cleggy) is buried next to Compo. They were very close friends. I loved them both. ❤❤
Very dear friend's in real life as well as in summer wine 👍🌟❤
Brilliant when I can go over will definitely visit this Beautiful place.My Favourite show still watch it today 🥰🥰👍👍
You should!
I love your walk of Homefeld seeing the film locations of the last of the summer wine. It brought back memories of our family sitting round the TV on a Sunday evening.
Brilliant thank you Marie!
What memories! Thank you so much! Brought back my Dads laughter when we watched Last of the summer wine! Happy memories ;0)
Ah brilliant! That's made my day hearing that! Thank you so much for watching my channel Stuart!

Yes very sad / legends
Who can’t resist Compo,Foggy and a Cleggy ? 😅👍
Ha ha so true! 🤣
Gimbal Walk TV spent a lovely day with my dad there many moons ago. Those roads are steep,we were typical townie knackered. Glad filming was being done and Norah was in her stockings up a set of step ladders cleaning her windows for my dad 😂😜
@@banksyc473 Ahh ha ha ha ha AMAZING!!! Lifelong memories right there! 🤣
@@banksyc473
Lucky you & your Dad! That would “make my day” (actually much longer than a day) if I could have witnessed that scene!
another great video brings back the time i could walk up the steps
Hi great tour, I still love watching lasts of the summer wine and have visited it two or three times with my parents and we have eaten in sid's cafe, and visited the museum. But it used to be on the top street, and I remember it had a few of the props and c motor's gadgets. Watching this brought back a lot of happy memories of trips with mum and dad who have passed away.. Great video....
Thank you so much
It’s made me very happy that you have had happy memories return ❤️
Very much enjoyed, thank you!
Our pleasure!
Compo, Foggy and Cleggy. Great video. 👍
Thanks! 👍 Thank you for watching my channel!
I've watched every show here in the USA on PBS (public broadcasting station) I never realized their was so much traffic there! Always seemed like a small quiet little close nitt community.. much much larger than I ever thought possible...
The traffic is crazy here!
Like most film locations never quite what it seems on screen much of the filming was on the quiet small roads around the town and no doubt when Places like Sids cafe were used time of the day and week would have been taken into consideration , lovely programme though and has a certain timeless ness about it.
SIDs cafe were used
I don't want to just visit, I want to live there! It's been my hearts desire since I started watching Last of the summer wine many years ago. But we live in Canada so it probably will always stay a dream away. Love this video! Thank you so much 💖
Very nice. It certainly looks a lot more prosperous and 'ackled up' than it did when we left for NZ in 1978. Lots of lovely memories. Thanks.
Very nice to see again as we visited it once saw the places from the TV show very busy place
Yes very busy!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I enjoyed it thoroughly & am determined to visit the next time we’re in England.
Beautifull and clean city tour
Lovely place!
Lovely place spoilt by the horrendous traffic. Great videos and i shall make sure i watch your travels when i want to visit somewhere.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate that John!
Re Holmfirth - most people comment on the traffic more than anything else - it really is a busy village isn't it!
Great ...Loved it very much and yes we have been to Holmfirth......You mentioned St Johns Church...we walked up Upperthong lane,which is a steep climb to the church...we managed it but you have to been reasonbly fit to do so....but it was well worth the effort for the views and to see Compo and Clegg Grave.Such a shame Last of the summer wine ended but memories and repeats live on......Thanks again
You're really welcome Sean - thank you so much for watching my channel!
@@GimbalWalkTV Your very welcome ...iv'e watched other tours and they are fab......Keep up the good work ...lovely places to visit...fav so far is Robin hoods bay :-)
Love your video, I have family living in Holmfirth and I live a bus ride away but thanks to your video I now know about the area that I didn't lol.
Ah thank you for saying so Judith that means a lot!
Came here in June 2019 and it is a lovely little town. Had a nice cup of coffee inside Sid's Cafe and took the Summer Wine bus tour which is well worth doing. The bus driver is very knowledgeable about the show and takes you to a lot of locations including where some of the cast lived during filming. Also visited the church where Peter Sallis and Bill Owen are buried next to each other. The Summer Wine exhibition is excellent and a must-see if you come to Holmfirth
Awesome - well said! Great place and really great for fans of the show too!
Wow thank you Both for that amazing information. Very interesting . I love the stories. . My very best wishes to you both Dee . 👍👍👍👍👍
I came to have a look around Holmfirth one day, and by sheer coincidence they were filming an episode. I met and had a photo taken with 'Compo'.
Ah amazing!! Am jealous - would have loved that
WOW Lucky you!!
Looking forward to this Holmfirth tour . I stayed there a few nights at the Old Bridge hotel and walked round the town. Loved it there!
Ah should be some familiar sights in this one for you then Stuart!
Good tour, Yes I walked along there and went to all the places you did.
@@StuYorks07 Thank you so much Stuart
Very interesting! I see the traffic in Holmfirth is just as bad as when I last drove through the town. Perhaps you could visit the site of Aunty Wainwright’s shop in Marsden? It was quite funny to see the BBC staff bolting the imitation shop front on to the building after it was turned into a house between their filming visits! A very clever idea. The Marsden Mechanic’s Institute Tower is a local landmark and unmissable.One of my favourite locations is the entrance of the railway and separate Canal tunnel at Standedge where Compo had his adventures in the oil barrel submarine (a very clever radio controlled device in reality, I’d love to know more about the skilled people who made the mechanical props). Finally, I always enjoyed counting the number of times that the Emley Moor TV tower appeared in the programme. It’s a beautiful tower and I’ve been privileged to visit the observation deck during my broadcasting days (ITV/IBA) where you could see all over the LoTSW countryside. Yorkshire is beautiful. Regards, Rob.
Well said!
Some great info there too Rob!
Thanks for tour.
You’re really welcome thank you so much for watching my channel!
Went there a good few years ago with my mum loved last of the summer wine music was quite on this video could here all the traffic still enjoyable video
Yes sorry for some reason I messed up the music on this video - no idea how - back to normal from tomorrow!
Stunning, I so would love to visit, LOTSW is my all time fave, it's strange to see so much traffic when you only see Edie, Wesley, Barry and a few others on the road, always looks like the quietest place on the planet, oh yes to a more show themed video, thank you for a slice of heaven.
Lovely thanks for the tour
My pleasure 😊 Thank you so much for watching my videos!
Beautiful historic town of Holmfirth. Loads of atmosphere... Hustle and bustle of a busy town. This was delightful as it has such good memories of the show. I watch LOSW till I fall asleep practically every night.. it's just that soothing. TFS 🤗🦋.
@Gimbal Walk TV. Thankyou so much for these videos.I have been to many of the places you show .My daughter and I used to go on many coach tours staying at various locations north of us living in Sussex.
Ah amazing
Thank you for watching - more to come!
I discovered "Last of the Summer Wine" in 1980 and instantly fell for it. I have wanted to visit Holmfirth for many years now. One day I will.
LOTSW is one of my fave shows 😊 we named our dog Nora after Nora Batty, thanks for a great tour 😁👍
Our pleasure!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Beautiful Holmfirth....Last of S.W. also popular here in Ireland as is All Creatures Great n small.
Will see what I can do!
Great to see a video of a place local to me,as usual brilliant video tour really enjoyed it.
I was once in the background of an episode of Last of The summer Wine in 1977 lol.
Suggestions for future walkabouts from me Knaresborough and Skipton lovely places.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! Was in Skipton today to film it but had to rush home - but will definitely film those for you 👍
Went there a few years back, brilliant place, nothing like last of the summer because busy traffic, it seems tranquil on the series, lovely place enjoyed looking round the town 😊
Totally agree
The traffic is crazy isn't it!
This is where I first found this channel through this video. Nice to see the places you go to. Got to get to some places in surrey.

Hello from New Zealand, I have just subscribed and look forward to more delightful walks. thankyou and best wishes
Thanks and welcome!!
Been to Holmfirth a number of times with my son and family who live in Honley, just a few miles from Holmfirth. I live in Wigan so it is always a pleasure to visit "Summer Wine " country side!
Ah nice! Bit of a hike from Wigan!
I used to drive coaches for a living and here are my notes for when I went to Holmfirth with my passengers:-
HOLMFIRTH
An attractive town where cinema films were being made by the Bamforth Brothers only months after the first ever film was produced in 1895. The Bamforths are famous for their comic 'cheeky' postcards, still manufactured in the town. From the bus station looking in the opposite direction to Nora Batty's house you can see Bamforth's factory, easily recognisable by a row of white window frames on the first floor.
The town and surrounding hillsides are now familiar to millions of British Television viewers as the setting for the popular comedy series 'Last of the Summer Wine', with its characters, Compo, Seymour & Clegg, (originally with Compo, Foggy & Clegg), see the exterior of Nora Batty's house and enjoy refreshments in 'Sid's Cafe', which really is a cafe.
Near the 18th century church is a pillar erected in 1802 to commemorate the Peace of Amiens. On this, a plaque records the extraordinary height to which flood water rose in 1852 when Bilberry Reservoir burst and 90 million gallons came thundering down the valley, 81 people were killed, damage was estimated at £250,000. In 1944 another 5 people died from floods.
Many local playwrights lived in the town, the most famous being George Taylor, most of his plays have a mill town background.
There is a monument that you can see both from Huddersfield and from Holmfirth set high on the hill called 'Castle Hill'. This was built to commemorate Queen Victoria's Jubilee. It is said that on a clear day you can see York Minster some 35 miles away.
The row of houses between Nigel Hinchliffes gift shop and the Elephant and Castle is known as Hollowgate. Not many years ago the houses were in ruins but now there are picturesque shops.
Holmfirth is also famous for its worsted cloth.
PLACES TO NOTE AND HOW TO GET THERE FROM BUS STOP.
NIGEL HINCHLIFFES GIFT SHOP
Walk down from bus stop to bridge, shop on corner opposite. Here you can buy a guide to Summer Wine Country.
SIDS CAFE
Not so long ago Sid's Cafe was only a cafe in the summer, in the winter it was a paint and wallpaper shop. It is situated on the opposite corner to Nigel Hinchliffes gift shop and next to the church.
The interior was filmed in a TV studio, If you look or go into the cafe you will see that the interior is totally different to the studio set.
NORA BATTY'S HOUSE
From Nigel Hinchliffes shop go up towards Hollowgate, past the Elephant & Castle (on your left), after approx. 300 yards look across the river to her house.
THE POST CARD PUB
Go down hill to bridge across bridge and turn right towards Huddersfield, pub on right, inside large drawings of postcards and reasonably priced meals.
Amazing thank you so much Roy!
Originally (for the first three years), it was Compo, Clegg and Blamire.
I've missed Holmfirth and my friends just out from there, hope to return soon, cheers for the vid'
You're welcome Jason thanks for watching my channel!
Excellent video ,very informative and well put together ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you kindly!
Foggy and Clegg. Loved every episode. Brings back childhood memories. Every Sunday evening without fail.
ha ha yes! So funny! what a programme!
Thanks for Holmfirth, I live 10 miles from there and spent 30 years from 1969 working just outside the town on the Holme Moss road.
I moved to our Huddersfiel branch in 1999 and retired in 2009, I've not really bben back to look round since, quite a few shops have changed.
Trying to park at lunch time to pick up some fish and chips or a sandwich was a nightmare and driving on Hollow Gate you risked running over tourists gawping at Nora Batty's house.
It used to amuse us to see them turn a corner in Holmfirth and appear in Meltham or Marsden, somethin non locals probably didn't know.
We have a set of 6 postcard photoes of the May 1944 floods which my late father in law had, sadly I don't do Facebook so can't put them on your site.
Ah sounds amazing - some great memories of holmfirth there! You’re right about the parking too!
Hi really loved your "last of the summer wine" video it was my late dad's favourite programme so much so that at his funeral we had the last of the summer wine music playing on our way into the church and dad's cloth cap on his coffin such a fitting tribute to a great man my dad and so watching your video brought back memories of him and the laughter we shared whilst watching the show, wish I could have taken dad to Holmfirth and had a cup of tea in "sids cafe" with him he would have liked that, maybe my wife and I will spend a few days in Holmfirth in the summer and remember dad so thanks again for the video it really brought a tear to my eyes thinking that dad would have loved the tour👍
Spent a day in Holmfirth many years ago, had a cuppa in the Cafe. Surreal but amazing experience !
It’s so weird being able to do that isn’t it!
I remember the first time I did and was surreal like you say!
Enjoyed the tour of a beautiful tv 📺 show. Nice town 😀
Thank you very much Jason!
Thank you so much for watching my channel - it means a lot 👍

Xx
You should certainly visit beautiful holmfirth 👍🌟❤
Thanks for the video. Brought back memories.
I don't like all the traffic now, though. It used to be pretty quiet in Holmfirth.
I love this show
Same!

It really is!
I will be coming back to Yorkshire soon and I love looking at some of the places that I have been too,and would love to visit again.

Visited Holmfirth 20+ years ago.Had tea in Sid,s tea room,well. Has to be done. Stayed in holiday cottage in next village. Visited Marsden where most of the programme wax filmed. Many years later visited Bill Owens grave,he said He always wz ted to be buried over looking Holmfirth. He was joined by his great friend and actor companion Peter Sellers of Wallace and Gromit fame. Bill Owen was great actor and one who always made me laugh out loud. loving your guide walks,thank you.
How amazing that they buried next to each other!
Real true friends eh!
Peter Sallis!
Excellent tour of Holmfirth
No litter clean and tidy place something of interest
To most people young and
old .
So true!
Wonderfull
Wonderful
❤️
Brilliant
What great video well done
Thank you very much!
Love the place. Need to take my young family one day as I haven’t been for a good 10 years now.
The only downside to the place is all the through traffic. Could really do with a bypass of some sort.
Great vid!
Thank you Craig! Agreed about the bypass thing! Anything to stop the traffic there would be fantastic
Nice place going to retire there in 8 months. Love the place
Sounds like the perfect plan Stuart
Thank you so much for watching my channel it means a lot to me 👍
