Bradford City Hall, Grade I listed town hall in Bradford, England
The stone exterior of Bradford City Hall features ornate Victorian Gothic architecture with a 230-foot clock tower rising above Centenary Square.
Richard Norman Shaw designed this municipal building, which opened in 1873 during Bradford's industrial expansion as a textile manufacturing center.
The interior halls display historical artifacts and carved statues commemorating local figures who shaped Bradford's development through the centuries.
The building functions as the administrative center for city operations, housing departments for public works, economic development, and community services.
The 13-ton bells within the tower chime every quarter hour and play special melodies during civic ceremonies and community events.
