This fantastic photo taken on Quarry Place kicks off a decade of memories from around LS2 in the 1980s. Other landmarks featured in this nostalgia rewind include pubs such as The Chemic Tavern and the Swan with Two Necks as well as streets familiar to a generation of residents including Woodhouse Lane and Raglan Road. The images are a mix from the YEP archive and others published courtesy of photographic archive Leodis, which is run by Leeds Library & Information Service. They also run heritage blog The Secret Library Leeds, which provides a behind the scenes look at the Central Library and highlights from its special collections, including rare books hidden away in the stacks.
