Terrace houses, Copley, Skircoat (Halifax)
These were built from 1849 onwards. They are back-to back houses with the door leading straight into the living room, and a scullery with a small window at the side. Upstairs are two bedrooms and there are cellars beneath. I suspect that most have been converted to through houses to give space for bathrooms and kitchens to modern standards.

Shop, Copley, Skircoat (Halifax)
Several shops were provided in Copley village, but only one survives. The others were converted to houses, but can still be identified by the large window.

Copley Cricket Club and Copley Viaduct
Copley Cricket Club bounded on the right by Copley Viaduct, at the back by the railway line between Sowerby Bridge and Brighouse and in the foreground by a housing estate built in 2006. The photo was taken from the towpath of the Leeds/Rochdale canal and Norland Town is on the hillside above the clubhouse.

Through terrace houses, Copley, Skircoat (Halifax)
These were built in 1865 in response to objections to back-to-back houses. However there was little improvement as only one small window was provided in the rear wall of each house.

View over Copley from 084221
Standing on the Calderdale Way and looking northwards, the line of the L&Y railway can be traced from middle left, where is Milner Royd Junction, across the picture to bottom right, on the way to Elland. The fine viaduct is on the Halifax branch, which curves sharply on a rising gradient. This line still has passenger trains, but the old L&Y main line does not. Prominent on the skyline is the Wainhouse Tower, actually constructed as a mill chimney but never used as such.
