Saltaire, World Heritage Site
Taking a change to my recent trips and time spent around Bronte Country, I took an early morning jaunt to the home of Sir Titus Salt. The wonderful village of Saltaire, a world heritage site in the district of Bradford. It is named after Sir Titus Salt who built a textile mill, known as Salts Mill and this village on the River Aire. Designed by architects, Lockwood and Mawson, Saltaire has beautiful Italianate architecture and a rich history.
I took a couple of hours walking around the streets, generally to the lower end of the village. I was aiming to show of the wonderful architecture of the houses and buildings, not forgetting the park or the centre piece, Salts Mill.
You can find out more information about the village and the surrounding areas on the “Saltaire, World Heritage Website”
