I'm happy to be proven wrong, but this does not appear to be genuine. If it is genuine it has no notability asserted nor verified Fiddle   Faddle  21:41, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment - this is certainly a genuine, historical district (it even seems to have had its own witch!!)- see this search for example. It is not now an officially designated district and all the content does seem to be unsourceable OR. Having said that, there does seem to be enough material that can be mined to justify at least a section in one of the articles on a larger area eg Manningham, Bradford. However, looking at that article such a merge would also be contentious! My view is that the sources need to be studied to see if a viable article can be produced and, if not, merge options should be explored before outright deletion.

 * Comment "White Abbey Road" certainly exists. Google Maps records "White Abbey" and "Black Abbey" next to this.  Districts in cities are almost invariably somewhat amorphous.   refers to White Abbey Road as part of the "World mile".  My view is that the article should be merged or redirected, unless the article can be adequately sourced.  However, I do not know the area, so cannot do this myself.

 * Merge selectively to Manningham, Bradford. This is likely otherwise to be a permastub and this action, though not ideal, seems to be a pragmatic solution. The Whispering Wind (talk) 14:25, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
