Nice one - I'm about to build a garden retaining wall from reclaimed granite cobbles - just cleaned them up and soring the sizes out . . .

Remember being based in Westbrook and the Old building in 1980/ 81 for what were my GCE 'O' and 'A' levels. Mostly happy memories mixed in with some less happy ones.. Thanks to the help of some good lecturers passed my exams.. I left Bradford many years ago so any chance you could follow this up with what is there now? Many thanks for uploading this video which brought back memories..👍

My uncle Donald Child worked in the old building I think around that time, in the electronics dept. During his time at the College he was a lecturer, teacher and he often talked to me about all the students work he brought home to assess and mark etc. He also was part of helping industry with design solutions, also travelling around the world to places like Egypt to help set up new laboratories there, and in his later years prior to retirement in 2002/3, he worked opposite the main college buildings on Thornton Road at the Electronics Yorkshire training building; there was a car dealership directly opposite this.

I love time-lapse footage, and this is great! When I was at Grattan we were sent to the Westbrook buildings in 2006 for a series of boring management courses, so there is a slight satisfaction at seeing them being torn down 😂

Why was it demolished 😢
@BradfordThroughTheLens

The decision to demolish the building was made because it was considered to be outdated and no longer fit for purpose.

From the US, thank you so much for these videos. Sometimes I feel like my Ackroyd ancestors who lived there for decades are walking by my side. They were blacksmiths in Bradford throughout the 1800s.❤
