Title A name given to the resource Fallingroyd House, nr Hebden Bridge - ALC00215 Subject The topic of the resource Fallingroyd, Places Description An account of the resource Situated between Hebden Bridge and Mytholmroyd. Demolished around due to dry rot. In 1873 Daniel Jones Crossley moved into his newly built Falling Royd House along with his wife and 2 sons. The wages book for the servants lists a cook, and three other female servants described as waitress, housemaid and general domestic servant. A gardener lived at Falling Royd Lodge, and three men, housed at Falling Royd Cottages, were described as coachman/groom, agricultural labourer, farm servant. The men were paid about £2 a fortnight (£52 a year) whereas the women were paidless and monthly. The cook was paid around £20 a year. From 1902 onwards a nurse was employed, presumably to care for Mr. Crossley because he became "afflicted with a painful disease which totally incapacitated him from following active duties". He was confined to the grounds and residence of Falling Royd unable even to go for a carriage drive. For someone who went on a tour of the world in his thirties, this must have been frustrating. His active life, not counting his business, included being a county councillor (he took a non-political stance although a staunch liberal), a magistrate, president of the choral and harmonic society and president of Hebden Bridge Ambulance Association. He helped to build Hope Baptist Church, to found Hebden Bridge and District Nursing Institution and supported the annual Old Folks Treat Movement at Hebden Bridge. He died in 1907 but his son, Arthur Riley Crossley continued to live at Falling Royd until early I 920s when he moved to Aldershot. He tried to auction the house but selling it was a problem. In 1928 Charles Robertshaw, later to be knighted, became the new owner. The farm buildings and outbuildings were no longer inhabited. He died in 1960 and Lady Alice continued to live there. The house by then had a garage and shooting range. After her death in 1964, the house was sold. It was demolished about 1970 due to the poor state of the building and a new house erected on the site.
