I came across this site a while ago before I visited a family friend who at the time lived in Holmfirth. The problem with most sites is that when you type in the towns name in you get a lot about Last of The Summer Wine, not too much about the town its self.
The site is funded by local businesses and is inteded to attract people to the area who are not just Summer Wine fans. Most of the videos focus on everyday Holmfirth life, including the switch on of the Christmas lights.
Other videos which have also found there way on to the site include a piece by the Tourist Information Centre and a video showing some of the beauty surrounding the village.
The businesses who help to fund the station are asked to part with just £150 per year. I am really impressed by this site and can see the business logic behind why it was created. Out of interest all videos on this site are also posted on Youtube. ,
