Scenes from both Happy Valley and Gentleman Jack have been filmed in this charming Yorkshire village
Recently the Upper Calder Valley has been under the spotlight. The moody landscape with its windswept moorland and green valleys has served as the backdrop for the BBC TV series Happy Valley, which became cult Sunday night viewing earlier this year.
Luddenden is one of the charming villages nestled in the Upper Calder Valley. Smaller than its neighbours Hebden Bridge and Mytholmroyd, the village is nevertheless picturesque, with clusters of stone cottages rising up the side of the valley.Historically centred around farming, the village evolved from the valley bottom up and by the 18th century it had become a centre for handloom weaving, with houses and mills being built higher up on the hillside.
It served as a major route for transporting goods through the Pennines, but this changed in the late 1700s when a turnpike road through the Calder Valley was approved by the government. You can still see the cobblestone road - Old Lane - today. The Grade II-listed coaching inn is dog friendly and has a beer garden in the summer. It was actually used as an exterior of a tavern seen in the first ever episode of Gentleman Jack. Branwell Bronte, the only brother of the literary Bronte sisters, was said to be a regular.
