Explore Hebden Bridge

Known for

The lesbian capital of Britain, the arts scene, the doubles houses built into the hillside, Hardcastle Crags, and the alternative community that's been here since the 1970s

A little history

A Pennine mill town that declined after weaving collapsed, Hebden Bridge was recolonised from the 1970s by artists, alternative communities and later the LGBT+ community.

📍 Local tip

Hardcastle Crags is one of the finest valley walks in the Pennines. The Trades Club for music. The town's independent bookshops, cafes and arts spaces are extraordinary for its size.
