Civil war in Calderdale10th March 2010
Methodist Hall, 7.30 pm

John Spencer
The Civil War in Calderdale

In December 1642 Sir William Savile of ‘Calder Dale’ attempted to take Bradford for the King. Halifax men rallied to its defence, but the fortunes of war turned and by the summer of 1643 the West Riding had fallen to the Royalists. A small Parliamentarian garrison held out at Heptonstall - this is their story.

Since 1990 our speaker has been curator of Military Collections for Calderdale Museums Service with responsibility for the Duke of Wellington’s Regiment Museum at Bankfield.
