Bradford is home to 40 blue plaques, each celebrating a notable person, building or spot within the city – and, during this 90-minute walking tour, you’ll learn the history and context behind a few of its most famous signs hiding in plain sight.
With author, journalist and Bradford Civic Society Chair Simon Cunningham as your guide, set off to visit plaques marking Bradford’s oldest street and the site where the Labour party was formed, before exploring areas commemorating the work of its iconic residents, such as nursery care pioneer Florence Moser and forensic scientist Felix Marsh Rimmington.
