Things to do in Brighouse

Halifax Piece Hall

The Halifax Piece Hall is a Grade I listed building in Halifax, less than 15 minutes away from Brighouse. It was built in 1779 as a cloth hall for handloom weavers to sell the woollen cloth “pieces” they had produced.

After a multi million pound restoration in 2017, the Piece Hall now hosts music concerts and a variety of small, independent shops from West Yorkshire.

    This magnificent building has been wonderfully restored and well worth a visit. Unfortunately, quite a lot of shops weren't open but I bought an amazing jumper in the Jitterbug Jean shop. The sourdough toasted brie and onion chutney sandwich at The Bakery was amazing. Pity I didn't have room for one of the delicious looking cakes.

    A charming destination that makes your day a delightful one... I have fascination for architectures that have historical significance. Piece Hall built in 1779 is a special one. Such a privilege that this masterpiece is just my next door...🤩

    I visited the Piece Hall on my way home from Leeds,and I wasn't disappointed it is a marvellous structure. It was a lovely place to wonder room and visit all the lovely shops and to have a meal in the sunshine. I would recommend this place if you are near by.

    Came here for a Quo concert - never been to Halifax before. Parking and diversions getting to the venue were a bit stressful but the venue itself was remarkable. Great acoustics, good sight lines - Quo filled it so atmosphere was excellent. Beverage distributors were easily accessible - didn't try the toilets. Busy getting out - be patient and watch your feet! Very unusual venue for a gig but worked really well - my wife tells me that she has been here for shopping too and that was excellent but I can't comment on that!

    Incredible historical venue of all sorts. Came all the way from the United States to see Halifax and The Piece Hall. Great acoustics and you could feel the bass - especially from the upper level balcony. Food was offered by local vendors and was reasonably priced and tasted good. I hope Rick makes this an annual occurrence!
