Why a question mark hangs over these 13 historic Leeds photos

These photos are all linked by one unanswered question - where were they taken in Leeds?

Can you help identify the locations? These images are all featured on 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. The majority were taken by Eric Jaquier, from Switzerland, who spent some time in Leeds in 1969/1970 and lived in the Hyde Park/Burley area. He photographed the streets of Hyde Park, Burley, Armley and other areas of the city. READ MORE: Why these 17 historic photos are the talk of Leeds LOVE LEEDS? LOVE NOSTALGIA?
