Little Horton is an inner‑city ward close to the centre of Bradford in West Yorkshire, that grew up during the 19th‑century boom in textiles. Much of the area is characterised by dense terraces and former mill buildings from that era, with easy public‑transport links into the city and surrounding suburbs.
Today it is a culturally diverse neighbourhood with a significant South Asian population and a mix of faith centres, community organisations and independent shops. Like many inner‑city wards it faces economic and social challenges, but it also has strong local networks and ongoing regeneration activity aimed at improving housing, employment and community facilities.
