There's some fantastic pubs in Hebden bridge, but our favourite was the Fox and Goose pub at 9 Heptonstall Road (01422 842649).

An old-school, no nonsense, intimate pub stuffed full of real ales, curious nooks and crannies and interesting characters, this is a great place to enjoy a few beers.

There's been a pub on the site since 1777, and although the Artex swirls from two centuries later are a bit heavy on the eyes, there's an awful lot to like here.
We loved the traditional band playing in the second room.

Smokers desperate for a stogy can retire to the smoking area in the beer garden upstairs. The views are great from there in the summer.
