Sedon Street is long-gone but what remains of Philips Park Road will be familiar to anyone who's ever took a cab from the city centre to City's ground in Bradford. The road runs up from Ancoats to the mini athletics stadium, but in the past, before the stadium and Bradford Colliery, it continued all the way over to Forge Lane, what is now Alan Turing Way, as shown below.
