Places to see in ( Brighouse - UK )
Brighouse is a town within the Metropolitan Borough of Calderdale, in West Yorkshire, England. Historically within the West Riding of Yorkshire, it is situated on the River Calder, 4 miles east of Halifax. Brighouse is served by Junction 25 of the M62 motorway and Brighouse railway station on the Caldervale Line and Huddersfield Line. In the town centre is a mooring basin on the Calder and Hebble Navigation.
The name Brighouse (or Bridge House) originates from a building on (or close to) the bridge over the River Calder. In its early history, it was a hamlet of the nearby village of Rastrick. Brighouse is twinned with Lüdenscheid in Germany, the link beginning with an exchange by Brighouse Children's Theatre in 1950 followed by a civic twinning charter in 1960.
The Halifax and Huddersfield Turnpike Act of 1823 allowed for the building of Calder Bridge, or Brighouse Bridge, over the river on what was to become the A641 road; tolls were abolished on the bridge in 1875 and extensive widening work was undertaken in 1905 and 1999 (both of these latter dates being commemorated in dedication stones on the bridge).
Brighouse is situated between Halifax, Ripponden and Brighouse (entailing Elland, Stainland, Holywell Green and Greetland). The town's mills are currently undergoing an extensive programme of renovation, becoming loft style apartments. Brighouse Library is a large building and in addition to its normal lending library services provides facilities for language courses; internet access and fax facilities. Like most public buildings wheelchair access is provided. There is also a small cafe and a lift for access to all floors.
The main shopping streets are Commercial Street and Bethel Street. Shops include Wilko, Boyes, Czerwik (a specialist cheese and wine shop), Lords PhotoDigital, Harrison Lord Gallery & Studio, Domino's Pizza, Just Books, Design 55, Superdrug, Boots, Hallmarks, Thorntons, M&Co and Jack Fulton. Additionally there is a Sainsbury's. In early 2000, a financial agreement made between Tesco and Brighouse Sports Club, allowed for a huge new Tesco superstore to be built on the site of the former club, and the old Tesco became Wilkos. The deal also enabled the sports club to build new premises almost a mile away (1.5 km) on land at Russell Way, Bailiff Bridge.
The A641 northward links Brighouse with Bradford and southward with Huddersfield. The A644 runs eastward out of Brighouse to Junction 25 of the M62 and Dewsbury. In the opposite direction, the A644 leaves Brighouse to the north-west towards Hipperholme, where it crosses the A58 Leeds-Halifax road, and continues through Queensbury to meet the A629 for Keighley. The A643 and A6025 provide less important local links, although the A643 is an alternative route through to Leeds. A bypass, originally called Elland Road, then renamed Lüdenscheid Link in the 1980s, after Brighouse's twin town in Germany, was constructed in the 1970s to clear heavy traffic from the narrow streets in the town centre.
Brighouse railway station reopened in 2000 and provides the town with access to the National Rail network. All services are sponsored by Metro and provided by Northern. The current service is part of both the Huddersfield Line and the Caldervale Line, with services on the Huddersfield Line between Leeds and Manchester Victoria and services on the Caldervale Line between Leeds and Wakefield Westgate via Bradford, Halifax and Huddersfield. Direct services to London Kings Cross are also available, with four services per day provided by Grand Central.

Exploring the Canada Line - Vancouver, Richmond and YVR Airport
*Closed Captions/Subtitles now available!
This is a narrated video about the Canada Line - and some of the nearby amenities, landmarks, and available connections from the fifteen stations in the cities of Vancouver, Richmond, and on Sea Island.
I had intended to make a production like this in 2009 with the line's opening, but due to considerable errors with the footage (and it was only filmed in 640x480 resolution) demanded that I abandon the project until much later, recording the footage all over again with a newer camera in a higher resolution.
Miniature Railways of Great Britain The Burnley Thompson Park M R October 2018
While we drove across the hills with very low cloud/mist,we had heavy drizzle all the way to Burnley,things were not looking good for a ride on our next railway.We found the park and made our way to the railway.Rosie and I were very pleased to see the train still in the platform.We were told this would be the last train of the day as they were packing up due to the weather,thank goodness we made it! As it turned out another family arrived for a ride so we managed to get the off train shots as well...Due to some track renewals they only used a shorter track but went around twice...Thompson park is a beautiful place to visit in the summer sunshine,sadly no sunshine today.
The trees looked lovely in the autumnal colours,but at times it seemed as though it was raining leaves,what a job that will be picking this lot up.
The railway is 7 1/4 gauge track.The loco had come from the Inverness M.R.
Two down one to go! We hope!!
