Location – A Proven Trading Environment

The immediate and surrounding area is home to several long-established and respected operators including:

The unit also benefits from:

Immediate access to Duckworth Lane shopping parade

Strong surrounding residential density

Close proximity to Bradford Royal Infirmary (BRI) bringing consistent daily movement

Nearby schools, community centres and places of worship
