Mansion to be training centre
A VICTORIAN mansion in Wharfedale has been sold and is to be use for adult education and training.
Burley Grange at Burley-in-Wharfedale, built in the 1840s, was bought by Burley Urban District Council in the early 1900s and taken over by Bradford College as a teaching centre. It has been disused since December 2007.
Bradford College has sold the house to Business Support and Development Ltd which is to redevelop the property for adult education training. The facilities are due to open before the end of the summer.
