Sheepscar was home to the Corner Cafe, a mecca for foodies with a taste for the finest Indian cuisine. The area is also known for its complex network of road junctions - Sheepscar Interchange - as well as its large gasholder and range of industry including car dealerships. These photos, plucked from the Yorkshire Evening Post archive, provide a fascinating overview of a suburb and feature local landmarks as well as familiar faces and news stories from back in the day.
