Bradford Industrial Museum, Industrial museum in Eccleshill, Bradford, England
The Bradford Industrial Museum occupies the former Moorside Mills building, displaying machinery, vehicles, and equipment that shaped the region's manufacturing history.
The museum opened in 1974 within a textile mill from 1875, which produced worsted cloth and expanded during World War I to manufacture military uniforms.
Regular demonstrations of spinning, weaving, and printing showcase traditional manufacturing methods through a dedicated group of skilled volunteers.
The museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 10 AM to 4 PM, weekends from 11 AM to 4 PM, with facilities including a café and free parking.
The Motive Power Gallery contains the Linton Engine, one of Bradford's last manufactured steam engines, alongside waterwheels and gas-powered machinery.
