This video looks at the history of the Bradford Power Station, also known as Valley Road Power Station located in Bradford, West Yorkshire. #bradford #cityofculture
As a boy I walked past these and was fascinated by the heavy industrial nature of valley road, with the billowing power station & adjacent large railway yard, plus of course the local woollen & worsted mills. It was quite a sight !

Another great vid thanks. Local history needs to be recorded, i look forward to your next.
Well done. Good to see some recording of our fast disappearing industrial heritage
Thankyou

I'm in that crowd who watched the chimney demolition, I was about 7!
Must have been a spectacular sight
There was a wooden tower like that outside a mill up Westbrook Street opposite to where I lived !
wow those pesky victorians were so advanced in their thinking, some countries still dont have power stations, yet we had one in the 1800s
