No corner of Mirfield will be spared as we travel from Shepley Bridge at one end to the Dumb Steeple at the other. We will touch on the old halls such as Blake Hall,
Water Royd Hall and Eastthorpe Villa which are no longer there and also Hopton Hall, Over Hall and the Old Rectory which are still inhabited today along with mention of the churches and chapels. Here
you will also find information about the railway and the stations that we have largely lost such as the Leeds New Line which passed through Battyeford and Northorpe Higher stations. The long lost
Engine Shed and the old Mirfield Station will also feature in the railway section.
