About

Horton Bank sits to the east of Bradford city centre on the slopes that rise from Great Horton Road. The area is largely residential, made up of long rows of stone terraces from the late 19th century alongside pockets of post-war housing. A short parade of shops and takeaways runs along Great Horton Road, and local streets are punctuated by ginnels and stone boundary walls that lead down to back yards and small allotments. Street names in use locally include Horton Bank Road and nearby side streets that step with the hill.

Community facilities are modest and local: primary schools, a community centre, and small workshops and light industrial units at the fringe. Regular bus routes provide direct links to the city centre and neighbouring districts. Social life often centres on the school and shop fronts rather than a single open space, and gardeners on the slopes make use of narrow back gardens and front yard steps for storage and drying. The pattern of terraced plots and short connecting passageways reflects the area’s development around late-19th-century workers’ housing.
