BRADFORD is battling Shipley in a social media poll to find out the UK’s top town or city.

World Cup of UK Towns & Cities is looking to crown the UK’s top place.

Bradford and Shipley are in round two, group 63 of the competition, alongside Brighton and Norwich.

A public vote on the World Cup of UK Towns and Cities will decide if our district’s places go through.

 

The poll is open with the top two from each four-place group going through to round three.

But what are the top things that Bradford and Shipley individually have to offer, at least when they will all reopen again:
