Description: | 6th April 1908
Part of the Quarry Hill area, Cornhill was an alley which was off the High Street. This view is of a pair of houses which have been bricked up, with a cart outside. Much housing had been erected in this area. By 1850s it was declared an unhealthy area. Local wells were often polluted by sewage leading to epidemics 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 |
