Sweets in Elland: 14th-Century Packhorse Bridge and Church

A packhorse bridge that's stood since the 1300s

Elland Bridge is a 14th-century packhorse bridge, now a Scheduled Ancient Monument and one of the oldest bridges in Calderdale, dating from Elland's days as a centre of wool and cloth manufacture on the River Calder.
