The gallery of memories focus on shops and off licences at the heart of the community as well as row upon row of terraced houses on streets which remain familiar today. Streets in focus include Woodsley Road, Osborne View, Victoria Mount as well as St Johns Avenue, Moorland Mount and Osborne Street. The images are published courtesy of West Yorkshire Archive Service, which collects and looks after the unique documentary heritage of the region dating from the 12th century to the present day - more than 800 years of local history. It also runs Catablogue, an online blog dedicated to preserving the past, serving the present and protecting the future.
