From 1850 until its incorporation into the Township of North Manchester in 1896, Bradford was a member of the Prestwich Union, constituted by order of the Poor Law Board in 1850. The Local Board was set up in 1863 under the Public Health Act of 1848. Bradford was added to the City of Manchester in 1885.
