Location: Manningham Lane, Bradford, For over three-quarters of a century, many thousands of students (mostly adult students) have passed through the doors of Bolton Royd and many will have wondered when the house was built, who occupied it and what is its history. This research throws some light on its colourful and complex background and provides some, but not all, the answers to questions regularly asked by students, staff and visitors. Please read and enjoy. May not be copied or reproduced without permission. If you have any further reliable information to add to the Bolton Royd history then please contact Colin Sutton, the author. Many thanks. The history of Bolton Royd and other old buildings owned by Bradford College can be found on the college website at www.bradfordcollege.ac.uk and follow the link to the In Touch With History section.
