Bradford’s Rich History
Throughout the 19th century, Bradford grew as an international focal point of the textile industry and became renowned as the wool capital of the world. As the industry grew, so did the city and its population.
Many historical sights and tourist attractions in Bradford today have connections to its industrial past. The village of Saltaire was founded by Sir Titus Salt in the nineteenth century as a model village, to relocate Salt’s business and create better living conditions for his workers and escape the city’s pollution. The village’s Mill, completed in 1853, employed close to 3000 workers and could produce 30,000 yards of textile per day. Since 2001, Saltaire is part of the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Another local attraction is the village of Haworth, famed as the home of the Brontë sisters, where literary fans can visit the beautifully preserved museum and former home of the Brontë family. But Haworth’s attraction is not all in the past, in 2002 it became the world’s first Fairtrade Village and is currently home to a growing number of independent businesses and initiatives.
