Historic Homes of Yorkshire collection
Description
An account of the resource
This Album contains images with notes on the Historic Homes of Yorkshire, a series of lectures first given to the Hebden Bridge Literary & Scientific Society by Mr. George Hepworth around 1916. An architect by profession, in 1894 he was a founder member of the Brighouse Photographic Society, and became a much sort after photographic artist and lanternist (someone who operates a magic lantern). He achieved wide popularity with his book 'Brighouse, its Scenery and Antiquities'; as only a 100 copies were published it has become something of a collectors item. The lectures take the form of a guided tour of the properties, and the language of the original notes has been maintained.<br /><br />See <strong><a href="/exhibits/show/historic-homes-of-yorkshire" title="Link to exhibit of historic homes">Exhibit</a></strong>

Description
An account of the resource
Slide 1 - This is one of the most picturesque old Houses in the parish of Halifax, and seems to have escaped external alterations evident in all others, according to the varying tastes of the owners. It is situated in the Calder Valley on a steep hillside, mid way between Sowerby Bridge and the ancient Village of Sowerby. The sheltered situation of the building, bowered in trees and away from the busy haunts of man, makes an ideal old homestead. Its outward appearance is suggestive of a house with a history, and it is a striking illustration of how our forefathers understood the art of building. Observe the graceful circular window of the porch chamber. On the headstones of the door are the initials of the builder, Richard Dearden, and also of his wife Elizabeth, and the date 1649. He it was who renovated the old house of the Medieval period and cased the old framework with stone, thereby giving to posterity the handsome exterior we see at the present time. In the interior may be seen still in position, the crooked timbers of the medieval building.Wood Lane Hall was purchased by the Dearden family in 1613, from Isaac Hopkinson, but up to 1586 from the earliest times on record it had belonged to the Woods, who probably took their name from the same.
