A LISTED former school in the centre of Bradford has sold at auction for more than double its guide price.
The former Cathedral School on Captain Street sold for £288,000 at the most recent Pugh Property auction in Leeds. The guide price for the building had been between £120,000 and £130,000.
The Grade II listed school has been empty since August, when Forster Community College re-located to Little Germany.
The building dates back to 1872 when it was opened as a Cathedral School, and until the auction it was owned by the Church of England Diocese of Leeds.
It is currently divided into offices, training rooms and classrooms.
The identity for the site's new owners has not yet been revealed.
