About Sun Side

Sun Side commands the rugged, high-altitude spine of the Pennine fringe, where the daylight seems to linger longer against the gritstone walls. It lies 4.4 miles north-north-west of Halifax (from Halifax: bearing 341°T, OS grid SE 070 318), and is situated north of Ogden village. The landscape here is defined by the sharp, exposed rise of Cockhill Hill, which casts a long, shifting shadow over the fields as the afternoon sun begins its slow descent. Sun Side occupies a position of quiet austerity, where the wind carries the faint, damp scent of the nearby Ogden Water across the open grazing land. To the east, the weathered remnants of Soil Henge stand as a silent witness to the centuries, their stones bleached pale by the relentless West Yorkshire weather. The architecture of Sun Side reflects this exposure, favouring sturdy, low-slung masonry designed to withstand the biting gales that sweep across the moorland plateau. Even in the quietest hours, the geography insists upon a certain watchful solitude, as if the ground itself is holding its breath against the changing seasons. The light here has a crystalline quality, sharpening the edges of the horizon and lending the surrounding slopes a stark, elemental clarity.
