This Saturday School will look at how the town and city of Bradford have been viewed over the centuries by writers, artists, photographers and historians. It will range from its earliest years through its nineteenth-century zenith as Worstedopolis into the twentieth century, as seen through the eyes of the celebrated, such as J B Priestley, and of less well known observers of the city and its people.
