Good morning (Just) kind viewers. Just a few shots for your pleasure from this venue. This, as the title
says is the Paddock for the former Halifax race Course. The Race Course hosted it's first races on
08th & 09th August 1878. The race course cost £ 12,000 to build but later sold for a mere £ 750
in May of 1885.

If you're interested there's quite a bit of info on it Here. (http://freepages.history.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~calderdalecompanion/mmh2005.html)

The site is now west end golf club
