A rather hastily compiled video that shows some changes and continuities in Bradford's recent history. Really needs a bit of editing / polish...

It was used as a short starter with Year 9 pupils to get them thinking about how and why the world has changed over the past 100(ish) years.

  • @willey7369. Looking at the profile of the teacher that made this, he just typifies the uneducated left wing time wasters many of them are in Bradford. That picture was Forster Square in the city centre. Victoria Square is in Saltaire. Pity those poor kids he is teaching. But Willy your comment on double deckers. What the hell you on about ? Of course it was Bradford ! Virtualy every city & large town in England Wales and Scotland has double deckers to this day. Also London dont have trolly's

  • All of the photos and locations have been provided by the Bradford Libraries archive or Education Bradford consultants. What we now call Forster Square has been labelled as Victoria Square, Town Hall Square, City Square and Forster Square in the archive. I've simply put in the location as stated in the archive for the first of those images. Not sure that bothering to put some resources online says anything about my political views though....

  • Lovely place back then, it now needs a little plane called Enola gay to drop a cargo! That's the only way to improve the dump!

  • Some, of the pictures in this video are not of BRADFORD... London has doubledecker buses. Plus that pic of so called victoria square never exsisted... where did u get the pictures ???

  • Bradford, was once a beautiful city and full of beauty n life.. Now, its full of nothingness and blight.. sometimes well enough doesnt need a helping hand...

  • What a total disaster by those in a priviledged position made of a once great thriving city. Most are proberbly dead, but those still alive should hold thier heads in shame.
