 Pork Pie Appreciation Society
Ripponden’s a very hilly village so we’ve got plenty of benches dotted around and because we want to keep the place tidy, we’ve got lots of rubbish bins too.
The first recorded reference to Ripponden was in 1307 when it was called Rybourndene, which is Anglo Saxon meaning a forded river in a valley.
In 1722 a storm caused the river Ryburn to rise to a height of IS feet.The raging torrent flooded the churchyard and coffins were left in the branches of trees.

 Jay Rayner reviews El Gato Negro Tapas, Ripponden, West Yorkshire | Food and drink | Life and Health
Head for Ripponden in West Yorkshire for some traditional parkin and pudding and you'll be sorely disappointed.
If some brave entrepreneur attempted to open a high-end Chinese gaff in, say, the Dordogne, the villagers would be at their doors with pitchforks and burning stakes before they could fire up the wok burners.
Not so in Ripponden near Sowerby Bridge where, unburdened by an overweening attachment to local culinary traditions, Yorkshire's finest have welcomed El Gato Negro Tapas with open arms.

 The Halifax Slasher - Old Bank Lane, Ripponden
The incident of 16 November at Old Bank, between Ripponden and Barkisland - some six miles west of Halifax - is not strictly part of the Slasher phenomenon, if only because the two girls - Gertie Watts and Mary Gledhill - were the victims of an all too real attack.
Halfway down the unlit path, they heard some slight noise behind them and were immediately hit by something like a mallet or hatchet.
Even though there is no evidence that the girls' attacker ever struck again, that panic crystallised five days later in Halifax.

 Collecting Antique Clocks: A 'New' Clock by Samuel Ogden, by Brian Loomes, writer and dealer
He worked in and around Ripponden, near Halifax in his earlier years, moving to Benwell, near Newcastle on Tyne in Northumberland by 1712.
Samuel lived most of his early life at (or near) Ripponden, and his children, of which he had eight born between 1687 and 1704, were baptised in the established church at nearby Elland, where his wife, Sara, was buried in 1712.
Until recently, the only example of a longcase clock known to be made by Samuel Ogden during his period at Ripponden or at least during his pre-Alnwick days (he may not necessarily have worked at Ripponden itself throughout that time) 'went missing' a good many years ago from the Tolson Memorial Museum in Huddersfield.

Contrasts rarely emerge as sharp, but three weeks ago the cook to the Sloane set returned to the rural Ryburn Valley to open a restaurant and tapas bar in the sort of pub you wouldn't normally offer a second glance.
In fact, the valley is speckled with eating places, from a Mongolian café and a Javanese coaching inn at Sowerby Bridge, to the design statement Travellers' Rest at Sowerby village and Ripponden's ancient pork pie pub, the Bridge.
It's reached by passing across the front of the neighbouring tandoori and negotiating steep stone steps, but that's hilly Ripponden for you, where someone's attic is often someone else's basement.
