Heritage Open Day: Discover the rich and vibrant history of Hebden Bridge, from the images of Alice Longstaff to the creative artistry of our tenants. Explore the Birchcliffe Centre as we showcase our work in connecting Hebden Bridge's past and present! For more than 40 years, the Birchcliffe Centre has been home to a number of wonderful historical resources. Our digital archive holds the collections of Alice Longstaff, who captured the soul of Hebden Bridge on film for over 70 years. More recently, Pennine Heritage has been working with academics and students at the University of Huddersfield to further explore the rich history that we have stored away. We're also home to a number of tenants who use their creativity to inspire in the present.
