About

Great Horton is a residential ward located to the south of Bradford city centre. The area is characterised by a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, alongside more modern developments and green spaces. Horton Park provides a large recreational area with sports facilities. The local economy includes several independent shops and businesses along Great Horton Road, which serves as a central thoroughfare.

The ward is home to a significant portion of the University of Bradford's campus, with student accommodation and academic buildings integrated into the urban fabric. This creates a noticeable demographic blend of long-term residents and students. Historically, the area was a centre for the wool textile industry, and remnants of this past, including some converted mill buildings, can still be seen within its boundaries.
