Scenes in West Yorkshire 3. Bradford Cathedral Please buy the useful guide and leave a donation for the upkeep of this fine building.
The mighty tower (100ft, ~32m high) of Bradford Cathedral was completed in 1508, the Cathedral at the time it was the principal Bradford Parish Church. On the right is the Celtic Cross in St Aidan's Chapel.
The ancient parish church became the Cathedral Church of St Peter Bradford in 1919.

As a retired chemistry teacher, it was refreshing to see a memorial to Professors Robert Lowry Turner and George White Watson who pioneers in the use of chemotherapy in the treatment of cancer.
In the small, plain and dignified St Aidan's Chapel is the Celtic cross carved by Chris Shawcross which depicts people of all times and places in their pilgrimage towards God.
Veni Creator Spiritus. The altar of The Chapel of the Holy Spirit.
