Council’s Housing <strong>Strategy</strong> reflects the requirements for future pitches but there is no action<br />

plan in place as to how the needs will be met. Moreover, it is possible that the existing Mary<br />

Street site may be needed for a new Waste Management facility – therefore a consequent<br />

replacement for the site would be additional to the pitches needed specified above.<br />

The sorts of areas suitable for gypsy and traveller sites will be addressed in the LDF <strong>Core</strong><br />

<strong>Strategy</strong> and in particular allocations DPDs.<br />

6.9 Culture and Leisure<br />

6.9.1 Museums/galleries<br />

<strong>Bradford</strong> District is home to some of the most exciting museums and galleries in Yorkshire.<br />

From the Baroque splendour of Cartwright Hall Art Gallery to the intimacy of Ilkley's Manor<br />

House Museum and Art Gallery, there is always something new to do or see, and admission<br />

is free.<br />

Specialist museums like <strong>Bradford</strong> Industrial Museum and Keighley's Cliffe Castle Museum<br />

bring our District's history and heritage to life through ever-changing displays; while<br />

interactive exhibits and family events at the Brackenhall Countryside centre help young<br />

people learn to enjoy and respect the countryside.<br />

The Councils Education team run regular workshops and special events with schools and<br />

other groups, and will be delighted to help you make the most of your visit.<br />

Many of the museums, galleries and community halls have rooms for hire for meetings and<br />

special events - some are even licensed for marriages.<br />

There are 7 museums and galleries managed by the Council within <strong>Bradford</strong> District:-<br />

1. <strong>Bradford</strong> 1 Gallery<br />

2. Cartwright Hall<br />

3. <strong>Bradford</strong> Industrial Museum<br />

4. Cliffe Castle<br />
