Subject: Bradford C. T. 753 (FKU 753) Chassis: BUT 9611T Body: Weymann H33/26R Location: Bradford, Thornton Road Date: c.1968
753 is seen from upstairs on a trolleybus for Thornton, arriving in the city from Clayton. The vantage point provides a good view of the overhead with the wiring used by the Clayton and Thornton trolleybuses merging not too far ahead.
The buildings to the right, including the charmingly-named Woolstaplers Inn selling Bentley's Yorkshire Beers, are now all demolished. A woolstapler was a wool merchant.
