A view up Crossley Street from Northgate. Buses clearly used to stop here. The 512 service serves Mixenden to this day.

The junction of Lower Kirkgate and Berry Lane, Halifax. Mackintosh's factory is in the background, the chimney is still there. The coal shoots were just off the picture to the right.

Stubbings Steps from School Street down to Commercial Street in the 1950s. The building at the bottom was originally the toll bar house on the Leeds and Hebden Bridge Turnpike Road.

Although it is hard to be certain the sign on the building at the left of the picture appears to suggest that the building is the Grand Junction Hotel which was closed in 1968 and demolished in 1971. If this is correct then this will be the area…

Clearly visible is the Dean Clough Mill (where the words Crossley Kosset are visible). The bus appears to be a 681, a service to Bradford that still runs today (2017).

This view shows part of Halifax town centre. The car park in the middle of the picture is now the site of Marks and Spencers, the large building on the right with the 'pyramid' roof is the old Zion Chapel. This is now the site of the bus station.
