Venue History: The ALDER HOUSE HOTEL dates back to the early 18th Century when the original Georgian building, from which the Hotel was created, was known as Healey House. Little is known of the original owners but the Healey family had resided in Healey, a parish of Batley, during the 16th Century. Perhaps the most famous resident of Healey House was Theodore Cooke Taylor, who lived there as a child and young man in the mid 1800'. At the time his father Joshua described the house as a substantial stone building upon an eminence overlooking the rural part of the town
In 1851, Batley was mainly a rural community with a population of only 9,000 people but by the turn of the century this had risen to over 30,000.Theodore succeeded his father and brother to become the owner of the family textile business in 1892 and held the reins until he died at the ripe old age of 102in 1952. He was hard worker and a world traveller and even in his late nineties visited the U.S.A to sell the cloth from his mills.
His biggest claim to fame was as a MP in the House of Commons where he was instrumental in securing the abolition of the opium traffic with China. He also the first to introduce profit sharing for employees.
It wasnt until 1982 that Healey House was converted into the privately owned Hotel it is today and named ALDER HOUSE HOTEL.
