It’s SO worth visiting, I absolutely loved Shibden and Halifax in general, can’t wait to go back! And it’s a very easy journey from Liverpool 😉

It was also amazing to see @19thcenturyem.bsky.social, whose BA dissertation I supervised, present her incredible PhD research on Jane Austen and the ridiculous invalid at the seaside in Sanditon!
