The street is said to have been named after a visit by King Christian VII of Denmark on
1st September 1768.
Some writers have expressed doubt about this explanation for the
origin of the name, and suggest that it was named after Sir George Savile who often stayed at Royds' House.
Thomas Kershaw was involved in redevelopment of the area
[1900].
On 4th December 1923, a runaway motor lorry wrecked property in the
street.
On 1st February 1926, Halifax ratepayers voted against widening
George Street and development of Bull Green, Halifax.
On 16th December 1926, there was a Ministry of Transport inquiry into
Halifax Corporation's application to borrow £22,634 to buy
property in Silver Street, George Street and Black Swan Passage
for the proposed widening of George Street.
Around 1935/1940, buildings in Silver Street, Black Swan Passage
and George Street were demolished when George Street was widened.
The newer buildings on the north side were completed in the 1950s.
