Does the location of the main photo plucked from the YEP archive look familiar? It is Queen Victoria Street - around 130 yards long and bound at one end of Briggate and the other by Vicar Lane - which was one of the popular shopping streets in the city in 1983. The image is one of 27 showcasing 12 months in the life of your city and its residents. City centre landmarks are in focus as well as memories from the suburbs including Farsley, Seacroft, Headingley and Pudsey.
