They turn back the clock to the 1950s and bring into focus different aspects of life around LS2 from garages through to shops. Familiar streets are also in view with Woodhouse Street, Pennington Street, Holborn Terrace, Charing Cross Street, Blackman Lane and Blenheim Terrace all featured. 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.
