===Historic buildings and structures===

====Canalside Mill====
Built in 1851 as Canal Wharf Mill, it was home to local company Walkley Clogs, and converted into a well known tourist attraction with cafes, shops and an open clog factory on the ground floor. It was destroyed by fire in the 1990s; consequently the top floor was demolished and re-opened under ownership of a property development company. It subsequently closed in 2002 and has since been boarded up. Numerous planning applications to continue its former use or convert it into luxury apartments have been passed but never undertaken.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://freepages.history.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~calderdalecompanion/m408_c.html|title=Malcolm Bull's Calderdale Companion : Mills & Mines : C|work=Ancestry.com|access-date=5 February 2017}}</ref>  On 1 August 2019 it was once again destroyed by fire,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.halifaxcourier.co.uk/news/historic-mill-to-be-demolished-after-major-fire-1-9911430|title=Historic mill to be demolished after major fire|website=www.halifaxcourier.co.uk|access-date=7 August 2019}}</ref> this time so badly that it has now been demolished. A planning application for the site development has yet to be accepted.

====St. Michael's Church====
The parish church was built in 1847 in Early English style. It was badly damaged in the 2015 floods but has since re-opened. The Sunday school in front of the church was reduced to one storey and is now used as a community hall and meeting spaces available for hire. In 2009 a new car park with monument in the form of an iron spike with a stone seating surround has been constructed park and is now used for village events including the Mytholmroyd Christmas Market organised by Royd Regen (the local development board) and the town council.

====County Bridge====
There has been a river crossing point since 1329 in the centre of the village, at the site of the current 'County Bridge'. A bridge is recorded in this location under the name "Elphaborough Bridge", after the name of Elphaborough Hall on the further side of Cragg Brook. Records of a grant issued to the local township for the purchase of timber stated it was for "repairs to Mitholmroide Bridge", in 1638. Similar records show that the current stone bridge was erected in 1684 by Timothy Wadsworth, at a cost of £50. The current bridge was constructed in two parts (and now consists of four extensions). The original packhorse style bridge in 1638, and on the upstream side, the bridge was widened and two extra arches on the south end were added to ease the gradient, although the two new arches were considerably smaller, the bridge now consists of four arches in total. In the 19th century, with shops being constructed on the north end riverbank, and a new premises being built for the Mytholmroyd Co-Operative Society right up to the water's edge on the south bank, two of the bridge's arches are mostly hidden. However, the premises were built with a large opening underneath the buildings, allowing floodwater to still pass through the two hidden arches underground. Mytholmroyd Bridge was eventually taken over by West Riding County Council, which gives the historic bridge its present name of "County Bridge".<ref>{{cite book|last1=Sunderland|first1=M.|title=It's water under the bridge!|date=December 2003|page=40}}</ref>

====Railway station and viaduct====
A prominent viaduct lies above the southern end of Mytholmroyd town centre. It was erected in 1840 by George Stephenson and is still in use as part of the modern day [[Calder Valley Line]]. In the 1850s, [[Mytholmroyd railway station]] was built, consisting of two platforms built on the Mytholmroyd Viaduct, and a three-storey ticket office, waiting hall and entrance stairwell, leading unto the viaduct. This later closed and the platforms were built a matter of yards up the track on land, and is now accessed by open staircases and long access ramps up the steep banking, where flowers and displays are maintained by the Mytholmroyd Station Partnership. The 19th century listed, 3 floor station building has recently been fully restored back to its former glory both inside and out and is awaiting tenants. In December 2019, the project was awarded the Railway Heritage Trust Conservation Award at the 2019 National Railway Heritage Awards. It was recognised for showcasing a real passion for restoration work and an ability to understand the objectives of the original railway builders and architects. A new, near 200 space station car park is underway at the old loading yard comprising 10 E-car parking spaces, secure cycle lockers and car share facilities. The West Yorkshire Combined Authority are working with the Mytholmroyd Station Partnership to landscape the car park with bee-friendly planters and information boards.<ref>{{cite web |title=New Car Park |url=https://news.calderdale.gov.uk/station-car-park-expansion-on-track/ |website=Calderdale.Gov|access-date=21 June 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Restoration |url=https://www.capitaproperty.co.uk/projects-folder/transport/mytholmroyd-station-restoration/ |website=Capitalproperty.co.uk}}</ref>

====Dusty Miller Inn====
This late 18th century pub replaced an earlier inn on the opposite side of the road, where Bridge End cottages now stand. The earlier building was home to the Cragg Vale Coiners in 1769. The current [[Listed building|Grade II-listed]] inn comprises a hotel, bar and restaurant. The premises were severely damaged in the 2012 and 2015 flooding, causing the business to close for repairs. The bar re-opened in April 2016 and was awarded the "pub of the season award" for summer 2016 by the local [[Campaign for real ale|CAMRA]] branch.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=http://hxcalderdalecamra.org.uk/content/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/CalderCask-Issue39-web.pdf |title=Pub of the Season, Summer 2016: The Dusty Miller |page=9 |magazine=CalderCask |issue=39 |publisher=Halifax and Calderdale branch of the [[Campaign for real ale|CAMRA]] |access-date=7 February 2017}}</ref> {{As of|February 2017}} the hotel and restaurant are yet to re-open.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dustymillerinn.co.uk/ |title=The Dusty Miller Inn |access-date=7 February 2017}}</ref>
