Longlands, Bradford history
Social reform
The original Longlands neighbourhood consisted of back-to-back terraced houses and was populated mainly by Irish migrant workers. By the late 19th century the district had become overpopulated and was suffering from health and crime issues. After over a decade of campaigning Fred Jowett persuaded Bradford Council to use powers under the Housing of the Working Classes Act 1890 to declare Longlands “insanitary” so the land could be compulsorily purchased.
Council housing
Longlands is important historically in the social development of Bradford as it was the site of the City’s second only council housing scheme. The BD1 Postcode area, which includes Goitside, Little Germany and Longlands, was listed as one of the top ten areas in the United Kingdom for buy to let property investment.
