The Old King Inn. Demolished in 1975 to make way for a major road widening scheme. This whole area is nowadays (2013) a major road junction where the main road from Halifax splits into roads to Burnley and Rochdale.

Old St Pauls church. According to Wikipedia: "Following a fire in the old St. Pauls in 1930, during which the roof was destroyed, the building was demolished in 1931, leaving only the tower and spire standing."

Show me an Aerofilms image without laundry in it and I'll give you a fiver...well, maybe not, but the point is this: a good drying day is a good flying day.



I love that lines of laundry here in Halifax run between the fronts of the houses across the streets.
