The Bradford Club closes after more than 250 years
It was in the 1860s that the Bradford Club opened in a city that teemed with commerce and industry. This week this venerable institution, which counts Sir Titus Salt and Sir Ken Morrison among its past members, closed its doors for the final decision, taking after patronage declined since the demise of the Bradford wool trade, brought the curtain down on one of the last Victorian gentleman's clubs to still exist in a provincial the closure of the nearby Wool Exchange in the 1970s, the dining room would throng with mill owners and managers on weekdays, while magistrates and solicitors debated in corners. Business deals were sealed over a game of club itself was founded in 1761 before settling in its final premises on Piece Hall Yard. Fixtures and fittings have been stripped out ahead of a new chapter in the Grade II-listed building's history. The BBC bumped into trustee Steven Howard on Piece Hall Yard as final preparations for departure were being made."It's a great shame," he said."Sadly, after many, many years of being here, we're having to close because what we do here is no longer fashionable."Mr Howard added: "We were still getting by as of Covid, but people's habits changed and not temporarily."Many of our overheads were hugely affected by the war in Ukraine."For instance, our power costs went through the roof."Our model just became redundant really." The membership had become elderly and many were no longer living in Bradford. The number of professionals working in the city centre had declined since law and accountancy firms left for of the furniture has been donated to a Halifax-based charity that will send chairs and tables to schools in the building has been bought by the owners of the adjacent City Vaults pub and will become a hospitality venue. Si Cunningham is the chair of Bradford Civic Society as well as the City Centre Heritage Action said: "I think there's a couple of things that have made the site particularly special. "The first one and perhaps the most important one is the building itself. "It's a very architecturally striking building. "It's a bit of a hidden gem for the city as well, because it's located down quite a quiet street in the city centre and has really strong links to Lockwood and Mawson, who are very well-known Bradford architects. "So the building itself helps to tell the story of Bradford, particularly those links to the industry."And I think as far as the club is concerned, that's the part of the city's heritage that probably has quite a lot of fascinating stories and a lot of links to some of the big names from Bradford's wool industry who would have been members there over the years as well." Dr David Pendleton is the current editor of the Bradford Antiquarian, which is the journal of the Bradford Historical and Antiquarian often visited the Bradford Club with the society. "It'll be sorely missed, but in some respects, I'm astonished it's got this far," Dr Pendleton Leeds Club, which had a similar history, closed its doors in 2017. One of the few clubs still going in Yorkshire is the Harrogate Club, which has been in existence since Bradford once had the most private members' clubs outside of London, with five Pendleton said: "There were some very rich members whose names have disappeared from history. "But people like Sir Titus Salt, and the father of the composer Frederick Delius, who owned a big warehouse in Little Germany."Names that we still remember to this day were members of that club and undoubtedly it would have had a lot of famous visitors as well over the years." But as the years went on, the club had to look to other ways of generating income. It was used as a filming location for the 2013 BBC drama The Great Train Robbery, as well as The ABC Murders and recent production far as Dr Pendleton is concerned, he is glad it is being kept in local hands."It's pretty good news that the people from the City Vaults have bought the building because they've got a decent track record of reviving, and doing a good job actually, of some of the city centre buildings," he Mr Howard is still reticent about whether the club's history will be kept alive."I'm not sure how much of it can be preserved if we're not here," he said."We were more interested in the club continuing, but it's not been possible."Times have changed." Listen to highlights from West Yorkshire on BBC Sounds, catch up with the latest episode of Look North.

UK's 'worst seaside resort' insists abandoned £18.5m investment isn't a 'blow'
A popular seaside resort that has grappled with its image in recent years is facing yet another blow, as it seemingly struggles to sell a huge £18.5 million shopping complex A popular seaside city savagely ranked as one of the UK's worst has clapped back at claims it has suffered a major blow over a £18.5 million complex. For many, Bangor - nestled on the coast of Wales and just a stone's throw from Snowdonia National Park - is a coastal gem wrapped up in nostalgia and natural beauty. Classed as the oldest city in the country, and commonly mistaken as a town, Bangor is filled with a rich history, unique architecture, and an impressive Victorian pier that stretches almost half a kilometre out to sea. Residents insist their hometown has 'lots to offer', but Bangor was sensationally snubbed earlier this year when it was ranked as the worst seaside resort in the whole of the UK. Earning a measly 42 per cent overall destination score, almost 5,000 Which? members gave the destination just one star for its seafront/ pier, food and drink offerings, shopping experience, and tourist attractions. Bangor redeemed itself slightly with its scenery and parking availability. "It's disappointing to see Bangor City named as one of the UK's worst seaside towns," said Bangor City Council at the time. "Such rankings often fail to capture the full picture and the unique charms that make Bangor City so special." However, Bangor's sliding reputation has recently been cast under the spotlight once more due to the sale of its premier shopping complex, the Menai Centre, which reports describe as another 'blow' to the city. Developed back in 2007 by Cathco Property Group - reportedly costing £18.5 million to build - the 130,000 square ft building struggled during the pandemic, which caused almost 80 per cent of its shops to close down. According to North Wales Live, it was bought by Bearmont Capital back in 2023, who added a bunch of retailers including he Original Factory Shop (TOFS), Greggs, and Hays Travel to the complex. Plans to open a major health centre in the complex in place of the former Debenhams store, using Welsh Government funds, have also been unveiled. The centre has now been placed up for auction with a guide price of just £4.2 million - a mere fraction of the price it cost to build. However, the sale does not include the Debenhams unit or a linked site, which was sold off a number of years ago. "If no stand out bids are received or bids received are of a similar value then a reserve price will be set on the property and it will be sold via a live online auction (date to be determined subject to Stage 1 of the process)," Savills, who is selling the property, said. Speaking to the Mirror, a spokesperson for the council stressed that Bangor doesn't have a beach and has never promoted itself as a 'seaside resort' - despite being located near the sea. "Similarly, Bangor does not promote itself as a tourist destination," they added. "We do, of course, have interesting attractions, such as St Deiniol's Cathedral, Garth Pier (which won the National Pier of the Year award in 2022), and the University building, to name a few, and Bangor is an ideal base to visit North Wales's attractions. However, to consider Bangor as a seaside resort would be flawed and inaccurate. In contrast to the Which survey, another survey found that the people of Bangor as the happiest people in the County." The spokesperson added that the council does not consider the sale of the Menai centre as a 'blow to the city' as most of the retail units within the complex are 'occupied on long leases' that won't be impacted by the change of ownership. "The sale, several months ago, of the other Bangor shopping centre, namely the Deiniol Centre, has not impacted negatively on the units within it nor on the City and there is no reason to think that this one will," they stated. "This year, Bangor is celebrating 1500 since St Deiniol established his religious settlement here and to mark this important milestone, the City has come together and is hosting an ambitious programme of events. It has something for everyone, from a military parade to music concerts, from Bangor's Across the World Exhibition to a History Festival, from the Summer Festival to the Christmas Festival and much more. The one exception being that Bangor does not have a beach."
