This is a masterpiece of a building and worth the visit if you like atmosphere, but it isn't going to give you a great shopping experience. Most of the units are now empty. One or two shops really do hold some interest, but you will probably want to tie your visit in with a browse round the indoor market and... More

Occasional Open Market held there, tatty stalls, many many traders, especially food stalls have drifted away nbot to be replaced. Calderdale Council could do much more, but they have already ruined Centre Vale Park Todmorden some 11 miles away with a terrible flood scheme, and here they should do more to attract traders to a very distinguished town.

The Piece Hall is a bit run down these days, but I believe it is soon to be renovated. Still a couple of good cafes there though.

Another atmospheric and varied place to shop1 As a keen hobbyist, love Halifax Modellers' World - real model shops are rare these days and for the hobby modeller, this is a Mecca - worth commuting from Manchester for!

This place used to be buzzing, the shops were full and the people came from miles around, smething for everyone, bookshops, antiques, quirky gifts, a brilliant record shop and a damn good xmas market not to mention some top bands used to play in the summer on the bandstand, now, most of the shops are empty, it's a shambles, I...

This is a great place with lots of history, its just a shame that there are so many empty units. Maybe its the rents they are charged! I know they hold events here but I still think more should be done to promote the place and get more of the units up and running.
