Hebden Bridge is a small town in West Yorkshire. It is set in the deep cleft of a heavily wooded steep sided valley, with a river, Hebden Water running through it.
An old mill town in the heart of W Yorks it has evolved down a wobbly little path all of its own in these parts, and is often likened to Glastonbury - but it is actually a lot griitier and probably much more deeply alternative and counter-cultural than its southern cousin. Socially, it is home and meeting place for a diverse population, many of them creative and new age minded people, with a high proportion of lesbians and some gay men.
