DO you remember these Bradford nightclubs from years gone by?

We’re taking a boogie back to 10 of Bradford’s lost - and much missed - clubs, from the 1980s, 90s and noughties.

1. The Plush Silk and Textile Club on Lilycroft Road in Manningham was better known as The Pile Bar, where you could watch a turn and have a dance. The club is pictured in 1988.
