In October 2025, students from Bradford College studying the Level 3 Diploma (UAL) in Creative Media Production & Technology visited Calverley Old Hall to work on a live brief for The Landmark Trust. Inspired by the history of the site and its restoration project, the students collaborated to produce a series of five podcast episodes, developing their skills in research, interviewing, audio recording, and editing.

In this gripping episode, students Hamza and Haaris explore the turbulent post-1550s history of the Calverley family. From the tragedy of a family murder to advantageous marriages and crushing Civil War fines, discover how the family fought to save their estate. Listen now to unravel this 'weird and wonderful' legacy.
