20. Woodhouse in 1967
This view is from Servia Grove, looking at the rear of Yardley's Spa Garage, which is on the left, in July 1967. The area of wasteland to the right were children are playing had been the site of five houses on Meanwood Terrace. The buildings had been badly damaged by gales in 1961 and were demolished before the even numbered houses opposite. This area was included in the Woodhouse clearance programme. | West Yorkshire Archive Service Photo: West Yorkshire Archive Service
