I thought I'd post a few more phone pics from my trip to Bradford yesterday. It was quite cool and overcast at first, but brightened up later. Here is the Town Hall as you first see it when walking from the train station. Bradford is built on wool and cloth, and many decades ago was a very wealthy town, something which is reflected in some of the remaining old architecture.

I had an hour to kill before I met Doug, so thought I'd call in a book shop. I was absolutely amazed by the interior, which I wasn't expecting at all. It turned out that the building, refurbished about 30 years ago, was Bradford's old Wool Exchange, once quite an important building in the town.

The exterior of this old fish and chip shop hasn't changed since the 1980's, when I first went to Bradford. It has a bit more competition these days, but still seems popular.

Here's the front of the Town Hall.
