Sowerby, West Yorkshire

Sowerby is a village in the Metropolitan Borough of Calderdale, in West Yorkshire, England. It lies in the Pennines, contiguous with Sowerby Bridge, west-southwest of Halifax and west-northwest of Huddersfield.
==History==
Historically a part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, Sowerby appears in the ''Domesday Book'' of 1086, and was an important settlement long before Halifax began to dominate. The ancient district of Sowerbyshire, a stretch of forest centred on the town leading down the Ryburn and Calder valleys and almost up to Halifax, was a Royal chase.
The name Sowerby, is made up from the Norse ''Sor'' for sour and suffixed with ''by'' representing a parished area.〔(Sowerby Bridge, West Yorkshire - BBC )〕 The local pronunciation follows the original Norse. (''saw+bi'').
A local legend described a castle in Sowerby abnd its presence was confirmed by excavations on 'Castle Hill' at the high end of the old town. Archaeologists uncovered the foundations of a Norman motte-and-bailey castle.
