If you like Victorian buildings, you'll find this the richest and most unspoilt town in Britain. Constucted on a scale to compete with Leeds and Manchester, it never quite made it and was left with magnificent public buildings and ornate mills, many of which are now boarded up. The Piece Hall is older and deserves to be better known and more visited. It's not a hall, but a large square surrounded by Italianate terraces of small kiosks in serried banks, from which merchants formerly conducted the wool trade.Steep hills tower over the town and the spectacular ravine of Dean Clough accommodates the canal and railway.
