This Is Bradford - Saltaire 1970's Shipley Bradford

[@jonesjones2948]

Stayed there last week, loved it.

[@tanyamushaney2743]

I live in Arizona, UH SA. We tear we everything down every few years and build fresh. We have a few things from our old days but not much huh. Congrats to you Bradford people for making and keeping an incredible home full of history and rugged beauty.

[@WillScarlet1991]

The only reason Saltaire's literally been untouched is because it has protected status.

[@randomman580]

Bradford is beautiful love bradford for life

[@alecporter1784]

Love this, what an amazing video, thank you for sharing.

[@32446]

I live here. The biggest change is the amount of traffic. crazy!

[@BradfordThroughTheLens]

Fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

[@Northyorkspaul]

Happier times.

[@trabali5168]

went to school round here, and college and played cricket. viva sir ttitus salt!

[@bradleyforde2601]

Truly beautiful. Bradford was full of titanic mills but this Jan, probably not a saint, Sir Titus Salt, is a British legend!. A shame more isn't done to preserve his heritage, especially as a prohibitionist.

[@MCBCharlieGaming]

Not changed much I live very close to here!

[@knobrotknobrot]

Used to get toy cars in that shop around 1979/80. And my grandma lived down the next left off the main road in a salts house for a bit.

[@infinitynutrition5715]

wow blast from the past !!

[@barronsremovals7325]

WOW what a difference !!!

[@torey9644]

cool to see how the shops have changed

[@ohwiseowl9163]

Lived on Victoria road for twenty years the traffic will destroy that village , its a shame the council don't look after them properly , people would be very shocked at how bad some of the issues have become in those homes ....

[@darrenbaxter7631]

WOW Changed so much!!

[@somegeezer4058]

Saltaire has barely changed at all. Different names above the shops that's about it.

[@DamnDealDone]

​@@somegeezer4058 it's over crowded, littered, run down, and has had forced demographic change like most of Bradford

[@WillScarlet1991]

Great. Thanks :)

[@markwhiteoak4119]

love it

[@makingtracks1188]

Very nice film. What's the song?

Making Tracks sunny by bensound

[@joshrogan9981]

Salt's mill has been stone-cleaned + the nice weather, so I'm guessing it's ~ 1976.

[@WillScarlet1991]

Could be any summer in the 70s.

[@lizbrooksbank8454]

best of times

[@ohdearnotagain2725]

Bradford is now a cess pit......and we all know the reason why!!!

[@somegeezer4058]

Because it's full of uneducated chavs that have no respect for others? I agree.

[@WillScarlet1991]

@@somegeezer4058 And they all live on sink estates like the OP.

[@DamnDealDone]

​@@somegeezer4058no. It has a very large amount of third world immigration that don't integrate and push their incompatible culture to the front of societal life.

[@DamnDealDone]

​@@WillScarlet1991 ironic that you are the !gn0rant one in this equation. I guess you like super mosques being built in every victorian estate in Bradford, forever pushing out and further alienating the English.

[@DamnDealDone]

100%

[@annwhitehouse8265]

Where is me pushing twins in pushchair

[@barbarastepien-foad4519]

Wow, this must have been before it all became a World Heritage Site?

[@fatladhenderson183]

Barbara Stepien-foad yes about 15 years before it became a heritage site. Salts mill in this video is still a working mill

[@DamnDealDone]

Before the invasion.

[@patrickmulholland9332]

Look how little traffic is on the road, compared to today.

[@Langlin22]

So this is what the place looked like 40 years ago.

[@paulreynolds9003]

England has really gone downhill since the 70s especially Bradford. No nice areas like there used to be .

[@DamnDealDone]

Many nice areas. You need to travel out further now to places like Wilsden, Ilkley, Haworth.

[@paulreynolds9003]

@@DamnDealDone Ilkley is Leeds. Bd post code goes as far out as malham.

[@DamnDealDone]

@@paulreynolds9003 not even close.
