Title: Francis Square, Bradford
Post by: Seasideman on Thursday 02 May 13 21:27 BST (UK)

Can anyone tell me whereabouts this was in Bradford?  On the modern map I can only find Francis Street.  Perhaps someone knows of an older edition of the Bradford street map with this street on it?

thanks

Peter

Currently there is a Francis Square in Cullingworth (BD13).
Nothing found for central Bradford?
