Bradford Monopoly Board Game

Product Information

The scale and grandeur of the site were so overwhelming that it was surely correct to take as a model for Saltaire those tightly built stone-constructed Pennine communities such as Haworth and Heptonstall, in which the only internal spaces were the churchyards, but from which could be seen views of 360 degrees of magnificent landscape. Watson became interested in the board game after his son Norman had tried the Parker Brothers original US version and recommended the company produce a board for the domestic market. Mohair, from the angora goat, a fabric similar to alpaca, was also widely used by Salts and other worsted manufacturers. The makers of the new Bradford Monopoly game have been forced to issue a “wholesome apology” after several boxes were found to contain cards featuring the well-known landmarks of Plymouth – 300 miles away.

They are Mayfair (dark blue), Bond Street (green), Coventry Street (yellow), Strand (red), Liverpool St Station, Marlborough Street (orange), Euston Road (light blue), Northumberland Avenue (pink) and old Kent Road (brown). Lunch and dinner time are particularly busy – the more people playing, the less chance there is to win. It is not quite clear how far the total concept of the complete village was established at this time; but it must have been discussed in general terms since Salt stressed that the mill had to be first built. Goalkeeper Tom Morgan could be out for up to three months with his broken shoulder, and Farsley manager Neil Parsley is disappointed with the lack of help from the game’s ruling bodies regarding the injury.The almost contemporary publication of Sybil, as well as Coningsby, another Disraeli novel, in the previous year, with the inauguration of the West Riding industrial villages, cannot be coincidental. The board is themed largely around sets – heritage, arts, sport, commerce, public parks, entertainment and other categories.

In a sneak preview, the makers have revealed that the very first set on the Bradford board is a set of three made up of some of the city’s most prominent parks.The board swaps the famous London streets of the original, such as Mayfair and Park Lane, with Bradford landmarks including the Alhambra Theatre, Saltaire and the National Media Museum. Deeply had Mr Trafford pondered on the influence of the employer on the health and content of his workpeople. But the universal use of stone imposes a unity on the whole town, which remained from first to last under the control of Salt himself and his chosen architects. A historic Lancaster bomber and RAF Typhoon flew over Leeds- Bradford International Airport (LBIA) to mark the site’s landmark birthday yesterday. They had just been given the prestigious commission for St George's Hall, and evidently Salt recognised that they were bringing a new architectural quality to Bradford.
