Description
An account of the resource
Alice Longstaff (née Speak) (d. 1992 aged 85) was a remarkable lady. Born at Little Lear Ings farm in Heptonstall on May 16 1907, she started work at 14 years old, in September 1921, as apprentice photographer at the Westerman Studio, 25 West End, Hebden Bridge. Crossley Westerman had established the studio in 1890; on his death in 1918 his daughter Ada took over the business, and it was Ada who trained the young apprentice. Alice remained there for the next 70 years. In 1935 she and her family bought the business, and her brother Clement became the framer and darkroom technician, until he died in 1963. In 1935 Alice married John Longstaff who joined the business as picture framer when Clement died, and they continued to work together until her death in 1992.
0ne of the most frequently-asked questions about the Longstaff Collection is why was it named after Alice, when so many of the photographs in the archive are credited to her predecessor Crossley Westerman?
Alice's Album - The Story of a Hebden Bridge Photographer's Studio, has the answer and much more! Copies are still available from local bookshops and online from Hebweb. This 68-page high quality soft-back lavishly illustrated with photographs in colour, sepia and black and white, it tells the story not only of Alice but of Crossley Westerman and his daughter, Ada, too, without whom there would be no collection.
Founder of the studio in the early 1890s, Crossley Westerman could have had little inkling of the amazing retailing tradition he had set in motion, ending only with the death, 100 years later, of Alice Longstaff who took over in 1935.
It's amazing enough for a business to survive for around a century but for it to be in the hands of only three proprietors makes for a fascinating story which "Alice's Album" tells from beginning to end.

Description
An account of the resource
"But hark! What sound is that which startles him (the tourist) with its shrill shriek, almost making him forget that he is 'far away from the madding crowd?' On the opposite side of the valley he descries a railway engine with a train of trucks just emerging from the wooded hillside, and he cannot help thinking that the vandals are on us again. But we shall have to explain that this is the temporary tramway, recently laid down by Mr. Tempest, contractor for the new reservoirs at Walshaw Dean, now in the course of construction by the Halifax Corporation. The line commences on the hillside near Whitehill Nook, and about five minutes walk from the village of Heptonstall, where quite a village of workmen's huts had sprung up, with Mission Church, Reading Room, etc., and known by the appropriate name of Dawson City, after its more distinguished prototype in Alaska. The line is about five or six miles long, and was constructed for the purpose of conveying material required in the construction of the waterworks.
A little farther on the tourist is again brought to a standstill to admire the beautiful trestle bridge, which at this point carries the tramway across the valley. The bridge is 590 feet long and 105 feet high, and was constructed by Messrs. G. H. Greenwood & Co., Joiners and Builders, Hebden Bridge. After crossing the valley the tramway is cut across the moor direct to the works."
