List of mayors of Bradford
This is a list of Mayors and the later Lord Mayors of the city of Bradford.
After having elected a mayor since 1847 Bradford was awarded the dignity of a Lord Mayoralty by letters patent dated 16 September 1907.[1] At the time, it was the seventh most populous borough in England and Wales, and the second largest in area, and thus the largest municipality without a Lord Mayor.[2] When Bradford became a metropolitan borough in 1974 the honour was confirmed by letters patent dated 1 April 1974.[3]
