John William St, Huddersfield

Scratching the surface of Huddersfield town centre, one discovers a rich historical fabric. The first parish church of Huddersfield was built about 1100, yet it remained a village till the late 18th century – until the Industrial Revolution shaped Huddersfield into the town you see today. A walk through the centre will take you past historic buildings such as the grand Huddersfield Train Station – a proud symbol of Victorian architecture and one of the top 15 globally renowned stations.

 

There are plenty of grade II listed buildings in Huddersfield town centre too, including the Sir John Ramsden Building, built in the late 1700s. This is one of the oldest warehouses left standing in Britain and is now part of the University of Huddersfield. The town centre is also home to the Open Market, which was built around 1887 and housed the town’s wholesale market, which is still used to this day.
