After a 10-15 minute steep climb, you're greeted by Heptonstall's cobbled streets and old-worldly charm. It literally looks as if the place has never changed in 100 years, and for this reason, offers something refreshingly different.
I was once told that this is the street where the old famous Hovis advert was shot. However, I've recently discovered the street is somewhere in Dorset, possibly Shaftesbury (part of Tess' world in Thomas Hardy's 'Tess of the D'Urbervilles').
Related to this, I remember Julianne Regan of All About Eve once revealing during a concert that the young boy from the old Hovis advert was the drummer with the band. Sometimes, it's quite amazing how things all come together.
