About

Follow the Bradford Beck Plaque Walk

A self-guided plaque trail reveals a hidden route that the Bradford Beck takes through the heart of the city.

15 spots across the city centre have stone markers set into the pavement, each with a line from an unique poem.

Follow the pavements between Thornton Road, beside the former Odeon, and Lower Kirkgate.
