14. Burley in the 1950s
This view looks down Willow Road, from the corner with Poplar Street. The corner shop is empty, this is 33 Willow Road. A pram piled with washing can be seen, this was possibly being taken to or from the public wash house on Kirkstall Road. The wash-house was in the same building as the swimming pool and slipper-baths. The wash-houses were provided in areas which were densely populated and facilities for home laundry work were limited. For a small charge a washing machine could be booked, there were 20 at Kirkstall wash house. There were also sinks, mangles and driers, so all the laundry was taken home dry. A pram was the usual means of transporting the washing or a home made barrow. | West Yorkshire Archive Service Photo: West Yorkshire Archive Service
