I think that the young lady on this picture bottom right is my Gt. Aunt who was a teacher at Primrose Hill around early 1900's. Her name was Mary Jane Hawkswell Tinker. Does anyone have more information about this picture. |

For a time this is where Leeds trams met Bradford ones. Different gauge, so transfer necessary. Sliding bogies were tried for a short time, but not very satisfactory. Bradford replaced tram with 'trackless' (i.e. trolleybus) |

Dear all, That’s great; we’ve reviewed your comments and thanks to your help we can update the catalogue to Stanningley. The revised record will appear here in due course. Hope you have the same success solving some of our other mysteries! Katy Whitaker Britain from Above Cataloguer |

It looks like a large factory but there appears to be no direct rail connection which would have been very unusual for the time. I wonder therefore if it is a different kind of large building like a prison or hospital? There is a tram line running down the road and the station which is off to the top left (on another unidentified image) is not particularly grand at all so more likely added as a workers station rather than for important passengers! |

Pudsey was full of woollen mills, none with rail connections that I can remember (my grandfather was manager of one). just out of the top of the picture was Cohen's steel works - which probably would have had sidings. |

I believe this is Stanningley. The railway line is between Bramley and what is now New Pudsey. The Railway yard I think is Stanningly goods yard, which is now occupied by a builders merchants (Local Building Supplies, 112 Richardshaw Lane). The main road in the bottom left is Bradford Road. The main road from middle left to top right is Richardshaw Lane. |

Since the next photograph, also dated September 1928, is in Derbyshire could this also be in Derbyshire? Eg Cromford Mills or some similar nearby development? |
