Description: | 6th April 1908
View along alley, which was Cornhill. It was off High Street. It was part of the area to be cleared for building of Quarry Hill Flats. Much housing had been built in this area in the late 1700s. By 1850s, it was a very unhealthy area, without good sanitation, water from local wells frequently being polluted by sewage leading to outbreaks of disease. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Quarry Hill Cornhill | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
