Property details
Skircoat Green itself is a vibrant, close‑knit community on the outskirts of Halifax, known for its independent shops, strong local identity, and excellent transport links via the M62 to Leeds, Bradford, and Manchester. The pub is woven into the area’s history, too. It stands on the site where the Chartists once met to create the People’s Charter, and its name, The Standard of Freedom, honours that legacy of community spirit and collective voice.
The Standard of Freedom is a cosy, characterful pub at the heart of Skircoat Green, Halifax: a place where locals gather, conversations flow easily, and every visitor is greeted with genuine warmth. With its slate floors, open fires, and comfortable seating, it has the feel of a true community pub, the kind people return to repeatedly.
This is a wet‑led pub with a compelling reputation for quality cask ales, proudly holding Cask Marque accreditation. Its weekly entertainment, especially the ever‑popular quiz night, keeps the pub lively and well‑loved throughout the week. The open‑plan layout creates a friendly, sociable atmosphere, and the bar’s position at the entrance allows the publican to welcome guests the moment they step inside.
Outside, a decked drinking area offers sweeping views across the Calder Valley, giving the pub an extra touch of charm. A handful of parking spaces at the front add convenience for regulars and visitors.
This private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a private kitchen and lounge.
