Bradford is fortunate in its museums. The Natinal Museum of Photography, Film and Television includes an IMAX cinema and is situated right in the centre. The Industrial Museum, including working textile machinery and a mill manager’s house, was one of England’s first.

This shows a bit but does not distract from the museum’s interest. The Bolling Hall Museum, situated ironically bang on the ring-road, is an old hall, a lovely building containing much of historical interest.

Further out is Cliffe castle, a large Victorian house at Keighley, with anything from geology to stufffed birds and animals to musical instruments. In Haworth where the father of the Bronte sisters was Rector is the Parsonage Museum containing many artefacts associated with the family.
