Hebden Royd – Including all cask ale premises in Central Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, Cragg Vale, Heptonstall, Colden, Widdop & Pecket Well Every effort has been made to ensure the information in this leaflet is correct. CAMRA Halifax & Calderdale cannot accept any responsibility for errors or inaccuracies. Inclusion in this leaflet does not guarantee beer quality WHAT IS THE PRE-FESTIVAL MINI PUB GUIDE? The CALDERDALE BEER & CIDER FESTIVAL, organised and run by the Halifax and Calderdale CAMRA Branch (Campaign for real ale), has been held at the beautiful Hebden Bridge Town Hall for the last three years, so hopefully has become a welcome addition to the drinking scene in Hebden Bridge in late summer, complementing the wide and varied pubs, micro pubs and bars in the town as a whole. To commemorate this partnership between the festi- val and the town we now call home, we have decided to publish this mini pub guide that is available in pubs and bars in Hebden Bridge and its surrounds. providing you the drinker/ visitor the opportunity to call into these establishments, try excellent cask ales and maybe food offerings during the two weeks leading up to the festival itself, during and beyond. The CALDERDALE BEER & CIDER FESTIVAL is already known for its quality of its cask ales, ciders & perry and its friendly welcoming all-round enjoyable atmosphere, so it was felt that this positive experience could be extended to more people. The PFMPG is all about pro- moting the excellence of cask ale, diversity and history of pubs in Calderdale district and its wide-ranging multitude of venues Above all the Pre-Festival Mini Pub Guide is designed to get you the drinker and visitor out and about around the HX7 postcode exploring and discov- ering new places, villages, little hamlets and all they have to offer. All the pubs and bars listed are on or near a regular bus route but many can be walked to by a gentle stroll around Hebden Bridge; although some are for the more adventurous walker to undertake. It is rec- ommended that if you are travelling to the more further afield places that you clarify open- ing hours before you commence your journey by using WhatPub.com for all the up to date information about pubs and bars in the Calder valley. WHATPUB.COM WhatPub.com is a web site that has a data base of over 35,000 pubs and bars covering the whole of the UK. It is a fully searchable site that the user can specify what type of establishment they are looking for; a valuable tool when visiting an area you might not know. You can search by pub name, town or district and select criteria you are looking for so maybe a pub that does food or is near the railway station, allows dogs, has real cider, live music or TV for watching sporting events, children friendly, disabled ac- cess or even accommodation. WhatPub.com can help you select your ideal venue and it is totally free to use, just download onto your smart phone or tablet device or PC. CAMRA Halifax and Calderdale. www.hxcalderdalecamra.org.uk 2 THE GREAT OUTDOORS Walking around Calderdale is a great way to explore the borough and breathe in some of the freshest air, with many tracks and paths going to all points of the compass. Calderdale is blessed with some of the most fantastic countryside the Southern Pennines has to offer, from secret hidden valleys to open moorland, secluded glens to forestry areas plus rivers, reservoirs and lakes. There are several local and na- tional waymarked paths crossing the borough to others offering the rambler circular routes of varying lengths. The canals of Calderdale give an easy walking level route travelling through open countryside alternating with industrial sites offering the walker a snapshot of life past and present along the route of this once important ar- tery towards Calderdale’s prosperity. Plus, with a goodly amount of canal/countryside inns throughout the borough, a quality cask ale and a bite to eat are not far away. PUBLIC TRANSPORT INFORMATION The Calder valley is very well served by public transport with regular bus and train services, with most areas being at least on or near ac- cess to regular bus services. Plus, with a range of off peak and saver tickets available, getting around the valley doesn’t have to be an ex- pensive business, but as with any public transport please check with operators before you start your journey. By using public transport, you can combine the experience of visiting the town of Hebden bridge and its surrounding villages and discover pubs you may not have visited before and find quality real ales on your travels. There are regular bus and train services that go in and out of Hebden Bridge. Train ser- vices are run by Northern Railway and travel between Leeds - Manchester and Blackpool – York, all services call in to Hebden Bridge station, which is only a short 10-minute stroll from the town centre, there are also connecting services to other parts of Yorkshire and Lancashire via stations on these main routes. First Bus operates the majority of main services in the Calder valley but many of the outly- ing villages and hamlets are served by a variety of small bus companies so please check before you travel on these buses as some saver tickets/passes are not always valid on these smaller companies’ buses.

Monday night saw the usual end of term reward disco at Atik, on Tuesday we were at Halifax Minster (many of us twice!), on Wednesday we had the Christmas Dash and Turkey Trot and the school’s Leadership Team served 1,000 or so Christmas dinners (it felt like more!) and on Thursday staff and students displayed all sorts of talents in the end-of-term concerts. In many ways, this last week has shown NHGS at its best - amazing music, amazing behaviour and amazing food all served up by various members of our community. Thank you to everybody who took part and huge congratulations for the standards achieved. Mrs Pegg and Mr Crawford deserve a special mention in dispatches for their contributions. However you celebrate Christmas or decide to spend your holiday, I wish all students, all parents and all staff a happy and peaceful time and look forward to seeing everyone back on Monday 6th January, ready to make 2020 a year when we perfectly realise our vision! (For my other job, I write cracker jokes)... My very best wishes to you all. Mr Fisher.
