Buttress and Hole in the Wall - ALC08281
Hebden Bridge, Buttress Brink, Hole in the Wall
On the right of the photo is the original "Hole in the Wall". The wedge shaped building is the end of Royd Terrace. The buildings on the left formed "Buttress Brink", with Old Gate passing in front of the shops.
In 1899 the Hole in the Wall was rebuilt set back from the position shown here, so that the road could be widened to give better access to the market ground and the centre of Hebden Bridge, and this building was then demolished.
John Cockroft Hardman was licensee in 1898 and held the license in the new pub until 1911.
