- Past photos of the town of Brighouse
and the updated version.
Quite a lot of the original twon is still there, obviously certain parts have been removed though time, like the holroyd building (much improved thornton square replacement) but a dew little hamlet style cottages an small shops have gone.

Beautiful. Loved watching this.
Brought back great memories, my father`s medical surgery used to be on Bradford road, before moving to Police street early in the 70`s. How the place has changed.
Great photo comparison good job lovely town i was tapping my foot to the music thank you.
Great film though - brings back memories from the (19)50s and 60s!
The town planners have got a lot to bloody answer for!
true, but not as bad as what they have done with Elland (which i am in the middle of working on next) :-0
@@allabouteve3290 Don't get me started on Elland! They were destroying it way back in the early 70s... when I had the misfortune to work at Gannex!

Brighouse was beautiful once. Now full of Takeaways and Charity Shops. The Brighouse of today is unrecognisable from the lovely Black & White pictures in this video. :(
Puzzled by the Anchor Bridge at 3min 45sec being called Briggate Bridge. But named correctly at 11-40.
BTW playing at double speed is still watchable.
I think some call it briggate (from the 'road to the bridge' dating from an older one 1770s) - although Anchor bridge would be the name of this one
it confused me a bit - I should of put 'anchor' 😉

Thanks for this. Brighouse the little market town.
Not that little, rated number 318 in population size listings of cities, towns and villages, from thousands in the UK.
Great little film, only comment is, the Thornhills Lane photo isn't in the right place, the first one is a view just passed the viaduct, Thornhills Beck Lane, the second one appears to be Thornhills Lane !
You could be right when checking it out - the road looked more 'winding' on the older image and I was comparing it to the house below in the background - the 'up to date' view is thornhill lane just above - same view anyway 😉
Why do they have demolish everything. Would have been better sprucing up and refurbishing these buildings, rather then removing them all together.
I watched the Lee mount vidio I was amazed because I go to Lee mount primary school
