Sowerby Bridge, West Yorkshire

Wain's Tower, Sowerby Bridge

Sowerby Bridge is a Pennine town adjacent to Halifax in West Yorkshire's Bronte Country.

Of specific interest to Bronte enthusiasts is the nearby village of Luddunden Foot, where Branwell Bronte worked for a short period as station master.

Also nearby is the large Pennine village of Hebden Bridge with its deep wooded valleys and moorland so typical of West Yorkshire's Bronte Country.

South east along the valley is Ripponden from where the A58 passes by reservoirs over the moors of Blackstone Edge and down into Lancashire.
