About

Laisterdyke sits to the east of Bradford city centre along Leeds Road (A647). The area is built around a long commercial strip of shops, food outlets and small enterprises, backed by terraces and later housing. Local trade has roots in manufacturing and services; a mix of former mill buildings and post‑war estates can still be seen. Bus routes run frequently along Leeds Road, linking the neighbourhood with the rest of the city and serving local schools, clinics and community centres.

Bowling lies adjacent and is centred on Bowling Park, a Victorian public park with a lake, stone bridge and bandstand that forms a regular focus for walks and local events. The park’s avenues and level changes reflect 19th‑century layout and provide short walking circuits for residents. Around the park are allotments, churches and community facilities that support neighbourhood groups and seasonal activities. Together Laisterdyke and Bowling form a working urban edge to Bradford with local shopping, parkland and easy road links to other parts of the district.
