Bradford Industrial Museum leeds

Visited here with my family this weekend. The museum was pretty quiet and there were only a few other people in there at the same time. This allowed us more time to look at all the different exhibitions and rooms. The transport section is very good as was most of the other areas. The houses on the street, which is dated in 1970s was excellent. The highlight of the day was a live demonstration of a gentleman working in the iron works. He gave an excellent insight into how this trade was done before modern machines and factories. Also he made us a nail which he put my daughter’s initials on. This is a free museum, I would of paid to visit here. Free parking and tour map. Spent about 2 hours here. Could of been longer if I read all the information on each exhibit. Definitely worth a visit back in time to see what it was like in Bradford industrial days.

My son went with school yesterday and wanted to go back. Had few machine on which made his day. Went to see the amazing blacksmith and my son got initial nail. Do miss the horse they was lovely to when they was there. Staff was lovely. Must see place and free x

A hidden gem if you would like to see and learn about industry back in the day, with many locally made factory machines. Also a nice collection of vehicles, including trams, a steam engine, many cars and commercial vehicles. The onsite blacksmith was demonstrating how iron nails were made. Might not be that engaging for young kids though.

Great place with lots of machines and vehicles to see, participate Jowett motor cars. Steam engine Nellie as well. First floor houses lots of machinery from the textile industry plus there are houses set up in several different eras to look at. Great for a wander round to understand some of Bradford's history. Recommend checking if our when some of the machinery will be running for best experience

We (family of 4) had a very good day out just before Christmas. Loads of inventions, activities and information to keep all of us interested. Ideal for a wide range of ages. A real treat for all of us and a fantastic resource.

Great, the blacksmith was in full swing. Changed in the last few years, much more professional. Gone are laminated A4 around the place and it feels more like a museum. Well done and a pleasant day was had.

This Museum is related to the Bradford history. The museum is very clean. The museum reflects the history of Bradford. I recommend if someone wants to visit they should take out 2 hours, also recommended for kids.

An absolute gem of a place! So many interesting and beautiful things to look at. Not to mention the building itself is stunning. If you're local check it out xxx

Great experience! The industrial revolution in West Yorkshire vividly recalled. Friendly and helpful staff.

Wonderful museum, filled with real industrial machinery. Very interesting to explore how it once was. Like submerging yourself in real history.
