Mytholmroyd
Contents:
Mytholmroyd is a Calderdale town lying to the east of Hebden
Bridge.
It lies in 3 townships: Sowerby, Erringden and
Wadsworth.
Primarily a river crossing – mentioned in 1577 – the town grew in
importance when the turnpike, the Rochdale Canal, and the
railway brought industry to the district.
The name is recorded as
Mithomrode [1286-1323],
Mythumrode [1309],
Mythom[e]royd[e] [1478],
Mithamroyd [1594],
Mytholmroyd[e] [1622],
Mithamroyd [1684],
and
Mitholm-royd [1895].
The name of the area is said to have been taken from Mytholmroyd
Farm.
The word derives from mytholm and royd and
means the clearing at the junction of two rivers – Cragg Brook
and the Calder – which was likely to flood.
In the early 19th century, the town fell within Hebden Bridge,
Midgley, Sowerby, and Wadsworth.
In 1891, Mytholmroyd became independent.
In 1937, it merged with Hebden Bridge to form the new Hebden Royd
Urban District Council.
Pronunciation:
The stress falls on the first syllable, the th is voiced, and
the second syllable has the neutral
schwa
vowel: my-ðəm-royd
The name is frequently mispronounced, notably by Daniel Craig
in his rôle of Ted Hughes in the film Sylvia
