Heritage Trails

The Railway Arch at Woodbottom.

In 2008 the Baildon Local History Society contacted Baildon Parish Council and asked about producing Heritage Trail booklets based on the walks that the History Society sometimes conducted people on. The History Society showed examples of what they had put together. Baildon Parish Council agreed to fund the the first batch of booklets.

The first six walks were made available, free of charge, from various places in Baildon including the library. Demand was high and the first 600 had all gone within 3 weeks. After a reprint the booklets were made availalbe from the library at a price that just covered the cost of the printing - £1 each.

PDF versions of these walks can be downloaded from documents section the Baildon Parish Council web site.

The pages linked to below will eventually include the images from the booklets and links to other pages and images to create a wider experience.

Bracken Hall Centre, and back.
