Piece Hall

I may not be done with my history or at least industrial history but I’m always eager to learn new things. Maybe pole dancing excluded, although I am an open minded person so bring it on. Now the Piece Hall is a little nugget of history right on our doorsteps.
Dating from 1779, the unique Grade 1 listed Piece Hall in the centre of Halifax is the sole survivor of the great 18^th century northern cloth halls. What a stunning site it is too. It’d be worth a visit alone to find out about its history and have a look at it’s expanse of pillars and brick but it is also home to many shops on the ground and first floor.
You’ll find clothes shops selling urban street and also second hand vintage. I like to loose myself to the big kid in me and explore the comic store. For gifts, try the Silver Shop and there is even a stamp place for all you budding collectors out there. Oh and don’t get me started on the chocolate and sweet shops or else I may implode.
For some double trouble of history and shopping it’s an obvious choice.
