Cool. Not only are you taking us on a walk, you also provided facts about the town.

Good evening! Thank you very much for helping us to over 9,100 subscribers! This evening we'll be taking a trip back to a historic Yorkshire mill town with an intriguing Lancastrian twist: Todmorden! There's a whole lot of history in Todmorden, but in 2014, the town was part of celebrations for Stage 2 of the Tour de France, which passed through the Calder Valley via Hebden Bridge and Mytholmroyd to the east! That's why you'll see a nice sculpture of a bicycle on the bridge above Walsden Water at 8:55 on our walk :)

2:25 The Pub has since moved nearby to larger premises on the cobbled Water Street. The Royal George pub has fared less well and has closed down. Lovely film.

I have family ties to this Pennine town and know it quite well , although I've never lived there. Although small, it's well worth a visit with plenty of independent shops, a thriving award winning indoor market and an excellent outdoor market too. The approach into "Tod", is dramatic and beautiful from all directions as the town is set in a beautiful steep sided valley- really a confluence of three valleys in fact. In the autumn it is especially beautiful when the trees turn golden brown, orange and red. The Yorkshire towns grew prosperous on the back of the wool/ textile industry, but Tod, being so close to Manchester,[ about 20 miles] and even closer to major Lancashire towns like Rochdale and Burnley, developed in the 19th century as an important cotton town, and so, even though this trade has now gone, the town remains a Lancashire/ Yorkshire hybrid in many ways. The post code, remains a Lancashire [ OL 14] one. I doubt my mother is alone in having a OL [Oldham] postcode! The town has two cricket teams and a football team, all of whom play in Lancashire leagues, and nearly everyone supports Burnley or one of the Manchester teams. I had to laugh when I saw the map at the beginning of the video, which contrived to leave Manchester out, even though it is much closer to Tod than Leeds. It gave a very misleading impression of Tods actual location. Manchester can be reached by train in under half an hour, it's the nearest big city. Todmorden has several attractive buildings, the impressive town hall was highlighted, but the towns other really significant structure was omitted. Namely the superb Unitarian Church, the spire of which can be seen in the video. This is a grade one listed building, which would not look out of place in a major city. It was financed by local M.P. , mill owner and philanthropist 'Honest John Feilden', of Rochdale in the mid 19th century. Indeed The Unitarian Movement began in Todmorden. Services are no longer held there, but it is still a community hub. Another movement, a more recent one, namely The Incredible Edible Movement, also founded in Tod, uses this huge church for some of it's foodie events. Since the inception of this group of local volunteers about a decade ago, the town has enjoyed an influx of visitors to witness the burgeoning plants, veg. fruit, herbs and trees planted around this revitalised town. This is a town on the up again after a period of post industrial decline, and along with neighbouring Hebden Bridge, is well worth a trip.

Was there yesterday, gorgeous little town. 😃

I moved to Todmorden in 1987 and fell in love with the place. That love has never left me. The market hall is a delight to shop in and the traders are mostly long term and local. We still have a Lancashire post code of OL14 which means we come under Lancashire sorting office of Oldham, and sometimes if I get post marked West Yorkshire it gets crossed out and replaced with Lancs. Small price to pay for such a beautiful place.

I was brought up in Tod. Great place to grow up and a great place to retire too! Sadly not a lot there inbetween

Nice walk in the town today, I enjoyed it. Hope to see more soon. Very beautiful and historical the town is. Your history lessons are always great. And your walks are always enjoyable and great. I like the medieval buildings also. How is your week going.? Mine is going great. Have a great day. Greetings from Canada 😀

Thank you for the great walk showing us the beautiful Yorkshire

It's a great shame that you missed out the Great Wall of Tod just along the canal bank. It's quite a feature from the Victorian railway era and supports the embankment of the Manchester to Leeds Railway line. I enjoy your videos immensely.

Top walk.

Please do your research. No heavy industry? How about Weir Minerals just up the road towards Halifax. I worked there for 5 years and it is a major player in world markets for heavy engineering. We got sandwiches from Ham Corner in the market and they were great.
