Yorkshire baptisms
« on: Wednesday 09 April 25 09:46 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone, struggling with a Yorkshire baptism, 1812. I can get most of it, but not the residence.
They're Heptonstall of Halifax parish baptisms, if that helps with the place name.
What I have (helped a bit by knowing the family tree):
Hannah, of William & Susan Shackleton, "do"(domicile?) ?? , aged 6 yr 5 mo
James ..... 3 yr 10 mo
Grace ..... 7 mo

They are all listed at the line(s) numbered 23 in the image. Any help with the place name appreciated, it's not one I recognise
HAY - Aberdeen, Shetland, etc.
LEE - Todmorden, etc.
BELSHAW - Farnworth, Bolton, Wigan, Manchester, Todmorden, etc.
ALLINSON - Pontefract, Leeds, etc.
UPWARD - Isle of Wight

I believe it is "Hardhippins."

It was still going by that name in 1841, at which time several families were living there, including this one (as an example):

Interesting Google ai interpretation: Meaning:
"Hippins" is a Yorkshire dialect word for stepping stones, which are used to cross a river by "hopping" or "hipping" across them.
Example:
The phrase "hard hippins" would refer to a set of stepping stones that are particularly difficult or challenging to cross

This is the enumerator's walk for the 1841 entry suggested by Queenie.

Thank you BumbleB, that's very helpful. Can  I ask, where did you find that description, please? The image on Ancestry links to findmypast which only shows a few pages of the census.
many thanks

Ancestry have 10 pages for the 1841 location, and Mary is on image 3.  If you go to image 1, then that is where the enumerator's schedule is given.  ;)
