Halifax Gibbet

edit

There is an inscribed stone tablet detailing the Halifax Gibbet, in the courtyard at the rear, near the Folk Museum. See the mention here. My guess it was moved here from central Halifax, but there is no explanatory information that I am aware of. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:01, 6 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hemingway’s owning Shibden Hall

edit

I noted the comment that’Listers owned… the Hall for 300 years’, but believe this is incorrect as at the Hall itself, a visitor guide explains that immediately prior to the Listers, a wealthy family called Hemingway owned it after the Waterhouses went bankrupt….. I am unsure how to correct this TheEnglishAreComing (talk) 21:26, 12 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

According to the County Archives the Hemingways and Listers were related and some of them were merely tenants. I have adjusted the wording to refer to Hemingway. Dormskirk (talk) 22:51, 12 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
