One of the many projects the Society is currently working on is the Gibson and Sutcliffe papers. The materials had been lying in a room at Croft House in Hebden Bridge, undisturbed for over 50 years. One collection belonged to Abraham Gibson of Greenwood Lee and the other to Sutcliffe & Sutcliffe, architects. Members of the Society are also transcribing gravestones in Heptonstall churchyard, providing easy access to local information for genealogists. Still Image A static visual representation.

Title A name given to the resource Asquith Bottom House, Sowerby Bridge - HLS01287 Subject The topic of the resource Architecture, Asquith Bottom House, Drawing, Halifax Courier Ltd., Sketch, Sowerby Bridge Description An account of the resource The sketch and description were originally published in The Halifax Courier in 1912-1913. The long, rambling and oddly-shaped old building occupies a somewhat obscure site directly beneath St George’s Church at Quarry Hill. No connected story has ever been compiled of Asquith Bottom but it was undoubtedly built not later than the early part of the 16th century. It is generally presumed to be the first house erected in what is now known as Sowerby Bridge. Of course many alterations, improvements and additions have been made since then but the front of the original building remains intact, this side not having been encased with stone along with the rest of the building in later years. It is one of the few examples in the parish of Halifax where the original wooden building is still used as habitation, two others being Shibden Hall and Sunnybank.
