Bradford Cathedral Tower

Bradford Cathedral Tower


This is a view of Bradford Cathedral Tower, with walls 11ft thick the tower was completed in 1508.  Here was the first public clock in Bradford and it houses a peal of twelve bells.  It was bombarded by the army of Charles I in 1642/3.

  1. I really like the contrast of the blue on the clock's face with the stone in this picture. I would love to hear the bells!
