The Colliers Arms (Pub) standing between Park Road Elland and the Calder & Hebble Navigation Canal, close to Elland Lock, this pub has been totally re-furbished following the 2015 floods and has a pleasant canal side setting.
@ludwigsdiana Thank you for your comment Diana, the calder valley has been prone to flooding since before the canals were constructed, the last big flood was on 26th December 2015, Prior to this there had been significant flooding in 2012 and the summer of 2013 resulting in the council, Environment Agency and other organisations working together to reduce the impact of future flooding, the events of 2015 triggered an even bigger programme of works, known as the the Calderdale Flood Action Plan millions of pounds have been allocated and spent on this flood protection plan, most of the work has been completed, the final phase starts in Brighouse in two weeks time costing 22 million pounds and will be completed in 2026:)
