Huddersfield
Did You Know?In 1895 the Northern Rugby Football Union, based in Huddersfield, split from England’s established Rugby Football Union following a payment dispute between the union and players from northern clubs. Huddersfield has been the birthplace of many notable British figures. Actors including James Mason, Jodie Whitaker and Zoe Lucker emanate from the town. Huddersfield can also lay claim to being the place that beloved dog breed, the Yorkshire Terrier, originates from. A pooch named Huddersfield Ben is considered to be the progenitor. Top punk band the Sex Pistols played their last two British shows at Ivanhoe’s nightclub in Huddersfield, on Christmas Day 1977. Huddersfield has a strong Victorian history as a textile manufacturing centre and market town. Many of its most historic properties are still standing, with over 200 listed buildings in and around Huddersfield the town centre. After World War One, factories in the town built the LSD 3-wheel car. It is now commonly known as the rarest car in Britain. Each year, the world’s largest contemporary music festival takes place in the town, aptly titled the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival.
