Bradford Bridge Street Wesleyan Association chapel

Bridge Street Wesleyan Association chapel was built before 1848 when the property consisted of a chapel facing Bridge Street, a building used as a day and Sunday school, and as burial ground. In the chapel a U shaped set of column bases indicate the presence of a gallery and the pair of staircases near the entrance suggest the presence of a lower floor. By 1905 the school building had been enlarged (?rebuilt) and much of the former burial ground had been built over. Later the chapel was closed and by 1915 the building was being used as a picture theatre.
