It was the city centre street which revellers came together for 'eating, dancing and cavorting' in the 1990s. Brannigans on Vicar Lane will be remembered by a generation of people who were living for the weekend during the decade. This wonderful collection of photos captures life along Vicar Lane during the 1990s and with it a number of landmarks including ABC Cinema, New Jumbo Chinese restaurant, The Templar Hotel and Grand Arcade and the old Red Bus Station. 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.
