Calderdale Heritage Walks - The Delights of Stoney Royd

• This new walk will take you on a stroll through a landscaped cemetery. Uncover the tale of the lost 1760s Rawson mansion (which was later a Fever Hospital). 
• Learn about the many South Parade graves moved in the 1880s. Discover fascinating stories of an airship man, a great tramways inventor, and a doctor, who gained a seat in the House of Lords. 
• We will visit EP Thompson's house and talk about a very strange anecdote about Anne Lister.
• The walk is mostly on good pathways or pavements. It is mostly suitable for mobility scooters (one difficult section is easily bypassed).

Meet David Glover outside the cemetery, on Swan Bank Lane near the entrance, HX3 9HR. (Please park outside the cemetery).
