Property details
The Albert is a well-established town-centre pub located in the heart of Hebden Bridge, a popular and characterful market town known for its vibrant arts and cultural scene, independent retailers, galleries and historic charm. The town attracts a steady flow of tourists, walkers, and day visitors throughout the year, supported by an affluent local population and its proximity to the surrounding Pennine countryside and extensive network of walking routes. The pub occupies a traditional stone-built semi-detached property in a prominent town-centre position amongst a variety of local businesses and amenities. Hebden Bridge has a resident population of approximately 5,000 and benefits from excellent transport connections, including regular bus services and direct rail links to Leeds, Halifax, Manchester and Rochdale. The town is easily accessible via the A646, with convenient connections to the M62 motorway network.
This is a characterful Victorian-style pub occupying a distinctive triangular shape. The open-plan layout centres around the main bar, whose traditional dark wood finish creates an attractive focal point that can be seen from throughout the premises. To the left of the entrance is a cosy seating area featuring a fireplace and decorative artwork, which was originally a separate snug. On the right-hand side, two comfortable rooms extend along the front of the building. The interior combines wooden and tiled flooring with low-level bench seating, freestanding tables, and an eclectic mix of chairs and soft furnishings. Original-style features, including a Victorian fireplace, panelled walls, and decorative wall coverings, contribute to a warm and inviting atmosphere while preserving the property's historic charm. A dedicated area within the pub is used for live music and other entertainment events.
To the rear, there is a small outdoor seating area equipped with approximately five to six wooden picnic benches, providing additional space for customers.
The private accommodation is located on the first floor and consists of three bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen and a bathroom, all in reasonable order.
