Cartwright Hall Overview

Bradford's municipal art gallery, Cartwright Hall, features a stimulating selection of modern exhibits. It was constructed on the grounds of Manningham Hall and opened in 1904 as a gallery. Their collection highlights British craftsmanship from the 19th & 20th Centuries and South Asian art and contemporary prints from around the world. 

This Hall was built of good quality masonry and weighed 50,000 tonnes when finished. It was designed as a museum and art gallery in the grand style of Edwardian Baroque. Additionally, the structure is lavishly decorated in the Baroque style, consisting of high-light galleries, an imperial stairway leading to the upper floor, and a barrel vault. 

Cartwright Hall's architecture has some similarities to the Brussels Palais de Justice. They also have a beautiful cafe housed in the Art Gallery’s Refreshment room originally from 1904 and is the perfect place to visit Branford to enjoy a cup of coffee, unwind, and tempting snacks or freshly baked cake.
