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 episode, student Kevin uncovers the architectural secrets of Calverley Old Hall. From the 12th-century first floor manor house to the stunning 2021 discovery of the medieval Painted Chamber, this episode tracks Calverley Old Hall's evolution from a medieval manor to a restored community hub. Listen now to decide: is it just a house, or is it a living piece of history?
