The City – A Lost Section of Inner Halifax

A new illustrated presentation by local Halifax Historian David Glover.

Until 90 years ago a part of Halifax was dubbed The City; it was congested, contained many yards and ginnels, and was poorly sanitised.

Eventually it was condemned, and properties compulsorily purchased; demolition followed, with a view to a cinema and a new Bus Station being built. The Odeon arrived, then after nearly 20 years – and temporary air raid shelters – came Cross Field which many will recall.  We also take a look at what the old streets nearby looked like.

Doors open 2pm, presentation starts 2.30pm.

Tickets £7, available here or from our Box Office on 01422 323688 or admin@actorsworkshop.org.uk
