About Huddersfield

Huddersfield is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England. It is the administrative centre and largest settlement in the Kirklees district, in the foothills of the Pennines. The River Holme's confluence into the similar-sized Colne is to the south of the town centre, which then flows into the Calder in the north-eastern outskirts of the town.

  2. Turnips are inherently funny, I think. Sorry. I don't know why I said that, but they're not funny. He wasn't the only MP who died in a turnip-related incident. I don't know if you guys found the story of Lewis Fenton, the wig MP for Huddersfield. No, okay, okay. He died a little earlier than this. This was 1833, about 50 years before, and he fell out of a window at home.
