Early photographs of Illingworth and Bradshaw (Halifax UK) showing the changes from then and now. Music: ‘Acoustic Breeze’ - from Bensound.com Music: www.bensound.c...
Absolutely great video, I can only imagine the effort you put in, I’m from this area, know it well. Lovely music, I don’t normally like music on the tube, you hit it just right, well done.
I know the one you're on about, yes that's Queensbury - nice place ;-) I've done a Queenbury video too. we live at Ogden - great walks there (Calderdale way) if you like walking ;-)
7:18 That is Mixenden, the buses are on Mill lane, camera is looking towards the Golf Course and yes there was a mill just to the left off picture but was demolished and replaced with an insurance company I remember it as provident, also now its new houses. Thanks for these videos they are fantastic!
yes you're right - this was actually the first one i did - and i didn't put much detail of the area! - i was on illingworth edge when taking the shot (i think illingworth valley covers quite a bit of Ogden too) Mixenden is on the left - then it splits into Ogden at the middle part - we've lived here for 26 + years (our house is in the middle behind the trees at Ogden - you can just see part of it on the older image, which tells me the photo is from 1975 or a little later 🙂
Why do all old photos look so much better? so clean with no trees spotless fields, now everything looks messy and horrible cant see anything for trees everywhere
Very enjoyable and also very sad to see some beautiful old building torn down. Thank you. :)

Lovely video. Would have loved to see down Beechwood Road…
Only got the library at the top - not much unfortunately - was planning on doing another later - whenever that is ;-)
