These photos raise a glass to the community pubs we have lost in Pudsey and Stanningley down the years.
They focus on the watering holes which will be remembered by generations of drinkers in the two neighbouring LS28 postcodes. This gallery features pubs from down the decades all of which provided a warm welcome in the community before shutting their doors for good and in many cases then being demolished.
Did you drink in any of these?
