A snowy street scene in Clayton in 1958
SNOW came to Bradford this week, so we’ve delved into our archive and found this photo of the winter of 1958.
Pictured here is a street in Clayton, where a heavy snowfall was causing problems for these delivery trucks, and the buses behind.
This week the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for “a period of snowfall” in Bradford, as well as the rest of Yorkshire, Lancashire, the Midlands, Cumbria, the north-east, and most of Wales.
The flurry of snow brought some disruption to road and air travel, and other services such as mobile phones and wi-fi connections were affected.
We’ve seen it all before, as this photo from our archive shows.
