A world of pure imagination


Whilst in Bradford I went into Sunbridge Wells, an innovative development of underground tunnels (originally a quarry, later a nightclub, prison cells, an air raid shelter and a plumbers' yard!) under the city centre. It houses bars, independent shops and small traders' booths in an atmospheric Victorian-inspired maze that also reaches up four floors into surrounding buildings. It tends to be quiet during the day but no doubt comes to life in the evenings. Interesting, anyway.

  1. How interesting. Underground Atlanta was once a shopping and entertainment spot...back in the 70-80s. I only went once or twice before the druggies took over.
