They turn back the the clock to the 1950s and bring into focus life around Burley. The main image is of Ventnor Street which was the last in the sequence of 'alphabet' streets around the community. It was home to St. Simon's Church of England School as well as Beans, a hardware company which specialised in the supply of cast iron ranges and grates, nuts, bolts, all ironmongery goods. They were first to patent the Leeds Door Check and Spring, a spring fitted to the tops of doors which would close them quietly and automatically. 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.
