Bricklaying students from Bradford College were victorious in an inter-college contest.

Students from the college took first and second place when they competed against fellow brickwork students at Bishop Burton College in East Yorkshire.

The challenge tasked students with building an intricate wall in five hours.

Joshua Smith, and Karl Cunningham, who both work for Bradford firms, were winner and runner-up respectively.

Tutors at the colleges arranged for their students to go head-to-head to help prepare them for two major competitions taking place later in the year.
