Local landmarks and shops as well as local sport are all featured in this nostalgic trip down memory lane. The photos are sure to evoke memories for a generation of people who called LS11 home back ion the day. 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.
