Tradesman's Homes Manningham do they still exist?
« on: Thursday 10 April 08 23:05 BST (UK) »
I have just received the death certificate for my 3x great grandfather, he died at 7 Tradesman's Homes, Heaton Road, Manningham, the informant was his daughter of the same address, year 1887, his occupation was joiner and builder.

Were they built for tradesmen as the name implies and do they still exist today.

Hi Susan,

Well they were still there in 1912.  In Kellys directory it states that Frank Walker was the secretary of the Tradesmens home and their offices were at 48 Vicar Lane Bradford.
Frank was also the secretary for the Bradford spinsters endowment fund who shared the same office.

Sorry it's not the information you want but I thought it might interest you.

Regards,
Julie

Hi Julie

Thanks for the info. 

By 1891 the daughter had moved from that address, so perhaps the homes were just for tradesmen or retired tradesmen. 

Will do some more digging with the Archives in Bradford.
