About the Book
A tongue in cheek collection of shots from around the city of Bradford, West Yorkshire, England, taken in and around the abandoned buildings of a former booming city that was once "The wool capital of the world".
Now only the derelict remnants of that industry exist, slowly being eroded by the elements
The buildings appeared to be shared equally by drug addicts, prostitutes, graffiti artists and the homeless.
One building in particular had become an secret urban gallery.
Art in it's purest form. Done neither for critical acclaim or monetary value. Hidden away from the public and created with a good dose of dry Yorkshire humour.
