    I'm Halifax born and bred and although I live a few miles away in neighbouring Slaithwaite near Huddersfield, I still love my home town and am very proud of it's history and heritage and still often visit as It's only 30 minutes drive from my home, thank you for sharing this fabulous vlog for everyone to admire and enjoy 👍

    The Piece Hall really is the jewel in the crown. If it was in York or Bath it would be a world famous attraction. The lack of traffic makes quite a difference in the atmosphere of the place. And it looks a lot different in the summer sunshine to when I was there in a cold wet April in 2018

    I was in Halifax bk in March/april 2024. I saw the westgate arcade during a bus tour. I wanted to go but thought it was a long walk. Thanx to this video I now know there is a shortcut thru the piece hall. (Unless it was from the magic of editing lol)

    Great video, but by no means a Full (as you put it) tour of the town. Halifax has numerous wonderful buildings. The relatively new Hx building society is amazing yet very modern in design. Then there is The Old Cock pub which was built in the 1500's and was where the Hx building society was created in the 1850's. Left Halifax 35 years ago, while it is still familiar it looks so much cleaner than I remember. Thanks for the memories.

    A good video - what I find odd is that you used a gimbal but I can see the bounce from every one of your steps - one other small point - as a professional film maker, I recommend you slow down your panning considerably, and introduce a larger number of still shots. Regards, David

    Halifax also has the greatest rugby league team ever. You should have gone to the gibbet, where the criminals were executed & across to the running man pub, named for a fella who legged it, the idiot came back a few years later thinking everything was forgotten, how wrong he was.
