Abstract: |
In March 2009, ARCUS were commissioned to undertake an archaeological building recording of the Hallin Hall SRE, off Midgehole Road, Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire (NGR SD 9866 2938). A programme of archaeological recording was required to inform a planning application for redevelopment at the site (planning application number: 06/00023/CON). The programme comprised a site visit, with 35mm and medium format photography, the production of detailed plan and section, as well as documentary and cartographic research. Hallin Hall was a water treatment works located to the north of Hebden Bridge northeast of Midgehole Road. The water filter house was a single storey stone built structure at a northeast-southwest alignment. Immediately to the south was a subterranean reservoir approximately 12' deep. Located a small distance down the hill to the southwest of the reservoir were two open shuttered concrete settling tanks. The water works was opened in 1894 drawing water off of the Halifax Corporation 27' main from Widdup Reservoir. Water was conveyed to the filter house where originally there were 3 sand filters that were replaced by 5 pressurised filtration tanks c1950. The works was decommissioned in 1988. |
