Castle Hill narrates a history spanning four thousand years of human activity, making it a significant landmark in Huddersfield, visible for all to see. Designated as grade II, Castle Hill stands out as the most prominent feature in the area. Initially developed as an Iron Age hill fort, the site was encircled by defensive ditches and ramparts. During the Middle Ages, a castle stood on the hill, leaving behind the well that still exists today. The current tower was constructed in honour of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897. Castle Hill has served as a recreational space for centuries, bearing easily recognizable traces of its past occupations. The hill preserves remnants of its historical use and remains a popular destination for locals and tourists.

CASTLE HILL REVIEWS
An absolute MUST when in Huddersfield, for the best view across town 100% Really lovely walks in the area, time it for a sunset and you will be blown away. Full 360 views on an ancient monument with the beautiful Victoria Tower, a landmark which can be spotted from all over town. Well worth your time, be wary of the road that leads you to the top car park, not much give way room, plus the walk up is far more enjoyable!
Really good place to have a walk round, you can spend about an hour here. Plenty of parking at the top or you can park at the bottom and take the 100 steps up. Parking is free.
Beautiful place. Very peaceful. Bliss. An easy escape from all the urban stress. Well spent day. Only drawback is the tower is locked and we couldn’t get to the top.

LAWRENCE BATLEY THEATRE REVIEWS
We went to see Milton Jones the comedian. It was a brilliant night and we thoroughly recommend seeing the show...especially if you like quick wit and no swearing. The theatre is approx 6 minutes away from the train station and easy to find. The comfy seating is stepped so you can see the stage without having to look around the person sitting in front of you. Good service at the bar and you can preorder your drinks for the interval.
Amazing performance of Bonnie and Clyde. There is so much talent and dedication in people which is never recognised. Love LBT such a friendly well maintained theatre. It is a smaller venu than other places but that's the best bit you feel the shows are just for you.
A modern theatre with stalls plus two tiers of seating. The acoustics are excellent and stage visibility is very good. There is a small, reasonably priced bar in the foyer. The staff are polite, helpful and efficient. Disabled parking is available, but everyone else will be walking quite a distance from a car park.

HUDDERSFIELD TOWN HALL REVIEWS
We made our second visit to the Town Hall to see You Win Again a very good Bee Gees tribute band. The evening was brilliant and very enjoyable as was Rob Brydon on our previous visit. The Town Hall attracts some good acts. The venue is excellent for small concerts and the architecture of the building is simply amazing. There is a bar downstairs where we both enjoyed a glass of wine. All staff are both friendly and helpful. Wheelchair access is available.
Just been to a Christmas lunchtime concert by Huddersfield University Brass Band. They were Brilliant! Aren't we lucky to have such talented young people in our town.
Was performing there with Hudds Choral Society so I'm slightly biased! It's a great building with lots of atmosphere and good acoustics.
