Never been here before in my life but I’ll definitely be back! Wesley would be proud of me as I’m doing the Land Rover discovery day at Eastnor Castle!We were in Ledbury on Sunday.
The Old Bridge has a very interesting history. Was that covered in the hotel chain's booklet?I'm staying in a lovely character hotel in Ledbury (a wonderful little town I've not visited before) and I've just discovered it's in the same chain as The Old Bridge in Holmfirth. Appreciate it's a bit of an advertorial but I found this article in their magazine interesting.
If the existence of pedestrians is recognized, I'll be happy. It will help both pedestrians and drivers if the walk signals at the top and bottom of Victoria Street are synchronized and if drivers pay any attention to them. I hate that the Market Hall is being demolished in favor of another car park. The one at Crown Bottom is seldom full.Make the most of Holmfirth on your next visit. Kirklees have given the go ahead for the towns redevelopment to start later this year & will be 2 years of disruption. Personally I feel sad that it will no longer be as we are used to seeing it, after all it still attracts tourists because of the way it is. Quirky is interesting!
Sadly it was just the pages I included in the post, but it is nice that they are keeping the nations old coaching inns open and still sympathetic to their original character.The Old Bridge has a very interesting history. Was that covered in the hotel chain's booklet?
Hmm, it will be interesting to see what they do. Compared to 20 odd years ago though the traffic travelling through the town has increased so much… like everywhere else really.I read about that some time ago Graham and have been dreading it,they’re going to redevelop the whole area outside the cafe in front of the Old Bridge to ease traffic congestion,I fear for the character of the town.
Need more and better public transport, with only short drives to terminals, free parking for transport passengers, and with EV chargers in the car parks.Hmm, it will be interesting to see what they do.

Perhaps they're approaching the problem the wrong way, whats wrong with only allowing public transport in the centre with plenty of parking on the outskirts. Most visitors could then use Shank's pony and for those who can't perhaps a park and ride.Hmm, it will be interesting to see what they do.

Small world! I take it you've been a few times before, have you seen much of the place? Due to time constraints I didn't get time to explore the town as much as I'd have liked.Coincidence alert: I've got a friend who lives in Ledbury.
Unfortunately not. Over the years we've only seen each other occasionally and that was usually somewhere halfway between where we live. I went there once for a gathering but didn't get to see the town.Small world! I take it you've been a few times before, have you seen much of the place?

Quirky is essential.Make the most of Holmfirth on your next visit. Kirklees have given the go ahead for the towns redevelopment to start later this year & will be 2 years of disruption.

So it's the through traffic that is causing all of these changes. Very sad.Hmm, it will be interesting to see what they do. Compared to 20 odd years ago though the traffic travelling through the town has increased so much… like everywhere else really.
