Title

Refreshment Facilities, New Bridge, Midgehole, Hebden Bridge. - WMH00150

Description

Undated postcard but possibly 1920s. It shows a number of refreshment facilities at New Bridge, catering for the vast number of visitors to Hardcastle Crags. First on the right is Crossley's Tea Rooms and next to that New Bridge Mill which first became Sutcliffe's Tea Rooms early 1890s and then Lello's Tea Rooms but probably closed due to the First World War and looking rather derelict here. On the left New Bridge Hall is also advertising teas and ices. All of this just at the entrance to the Crags! There was a real 'hospitalty' industry here. Good stabling is also offered.
