Looks wonderful on a sunny day. The big open square has an area of fountains and is framed by handsome stone buildings. Well used by Bradford people with bars, restaurants and shops around.
Busy, but clean and tidy. Mirror pool not full, but we are in a drought. Nice atmosphere
A safe open space with plenty of cooling water on hot days. The backdrop of classic buildings is a real bonus
Fabulous flower, foliage, and grass planting. Great pedestrianisation of the area around Bradford Town Hall and up to the science/photography/film museum. Lovely area from Jacobs Well to the Cinema, past the Alhambra, really superb revamp of all this central section. More work is needed on the rest of the city Centre, radiating out from this zone, to raise it up to this high standard.
What a beautiful square and very well worth a visit. Seems like the square got pedestrianised and refurbished not too long ago and it has been done very tastefully keeping in mind the gorgeous old architecture around.
Beautiful gem of a square!! Has been given a wonderful face lift!! A delight for the families & children.
We headed here and what was supposed to be a warm day but it turned out to be overcast! We traveled by train from new Pudsey station to Bradford train station a journey that takes ten minutes. The water fountains are a great asset to Bradford. The two two year olds had a wonderful time running and playing in the water. We will be back , lots of fun to be had. There are clean public toilets in the square too. Plenty of seating around to sit and while away .
Great place to visit. It's not the biggest place, but it has plenty of grassy space/ benches to sit on and the fountains are decent for kids to paddle/ splash around in. I often run round the city centre and often incorporate a run round centenary square into the run. There are plenty of eateries around city park and events are often put on here. Would recommend a visit.
Went to the light show November 2021, great to have an 'aurora borealis' experience in Bradford. Lots of families out enjoying the display, and the clock tower display and Bradford Boar, all excellent.
