Bolton Road & Kings Road

Bolton Road and Kings Road lie inside the Bradford district of West Yorkshire and form a modest residential and local-business quarter. The streets are lined with mid- and late‑19th‑century terraces, small grocers, takeaways and independent shops that serve the immediate neighbourhood. Buses run regularly along Bolton Road, linking the area with the wider city and employment centres, while narrow pavements, domestic front gardens and short back lanes reflect the street pattern laid out during the town’s industrial expansion. At the junction a short terrace of sandstone cottages with original sash windows remains, signalling the area’s building stock and street scale.

Behind the shopfronts are small workshops and former light‑industrial units that now house carpenters, printers and vehicle services, alongside family housing and community facilities. Local footpaths give direct routes to schools, a community centre and pocket parks used for informal play. Street trees and simple boundary walls help define the public realm, and weekly refuse and recycling collections follow a regular timetable used across this part of Bradford.
