Reffed on the 4g pitch through the arches. Absolute quality.
So beautiful! A must-see if you’re at Huddersfield.
Beautifull place to visit, 30min walk from Huddersfield.
Huddersfield RUFC), the most lovely rugby ground I know, with apologies to Wharfedale RUFC.
The best place to see the viaduct is from the Huddersfield Rugby Union Football Club ground in Lockwood where you can stroll under the viaduct. You can also see it through the trees in Beaumont Park. If using a bus the 324 from Huddersfield bus station is the one to take.
