Holme Silver Band was officially founded in the village of Holme outside the busy town of Holmfirth in 1865 by Samuel Broadhead, though records suggest there had been a Band in the village from around 1830. In it’s early years the Band rehearsed in the row of cottages that now make up the Bridge Tavern, just down the road in Holmbridge. However, in 1924 members and supporters gave their time voluntarily to construct a purpose-built bandroom at Holme Bank, which remains the Band’s home to this day. We have enjoyed a long association with the BBC Television series Last of the Summer Wine and have appeared in a number of episodes, as well as taking part in recordings and other projects.
