These photos charting a decade in the life of Hunslet were hidden from the world for years. They have been digitised for the first time after being being found in the Yorkshire Evening Post archive. They turn back the clock to the 1970s and bring into focus a range of landmarks and street scenes from around the south Leeds suburb. The collection of 15 photos includes memories of Hunslet Shopping Centre, Thwaite Gate, Hunslet Boys Club and Waterloo Road.
