Talk by David Cant: Whatever happened to the Townships? The part they played in local history

Whatever happened to the townships? The part they played in our local history

The ancient parish of Halifax was subdivided into 23 townships. David will answer some questions about their history: Where were they? How did they functions? Why is it important for local historians to know?

David has lived in this area for more than 35 years and is still fascinated by the landscape, buildings and history. He is a regular speaker at Hebden Bridge and across Calderdale, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm.
