Bedford Place is an area just to the north of the city centre which has attracted a lot of night life - there are restaurants, bars, pubs and nightclubs in abundance here, and the students love it. It is attracting trendy pub chains like BrewDog and City Pub. The area contains some attractive grand buildings - the remains of a development of the site by the Dukes of Bedford. Carlton Crescent is the most unspoilt street, and gives some idea of how the whole area once must have looked. The area suffered bomb damage during the war, and parts of it are quite ugly away from the main streets.
