Around 200 people packed into Edmund House Club on Pontefract Lane, East End Park, to toast how life used to be in what is often described as ‘old east Leeds’.
The annual event – which featured an impressive display of vintage photos – is primarily aimed at people who grew up in the LS9 postcode area and communities like Cross Green, Richmond Hill and East End Park during the 1940s and 1950s.
