Mary D's used to be Bradford Labour Club, the plaque is still there just inside the doors.
Confusingly, Ardwick Lads Club is in Palmerston Street, not far from the Townley. I wouldn't class that as Ardwick at all.
The Fort Ardwick flats, weren't they used in that Shooting Stars film with Keith Allen, about the lads who kidnapped the City player? I think that's where they kept him hostage.

Slightly off topic I know but I found the History of the Bradford Pit

I did not realise that it only closed as recently as 1968! And one of the reasons was the amount of damage the workings were doing to parts of the City, I have heard that there is still plenty of coal under the streets of Manchester still, albeit a little difficult to extract
