Wainsgate Chapel

Hilltop former Baptist chapel now used for arts, music, and atmospheric Calder Valley events.

Wainsgate Chapel sits high above Hebden Bridge, in the kind of position that makes you understand how serious chapel-going once was in these hills. It is now used for arts and music, which suits the town's present-day character.

Check listings rather than simply turning up. The building is most rewarding when something is happening, though the walk up through the hillside lanes has its own rough Pennine appeal.
