Description: | A 1962 view of the derelict White Hart Hotel, a large stone building with stone stairs and iron railings leading from the front door down to the road. A covered rectangular truck on wagon wheels sits in front of the building. On the right of the building an advertising hoarding depicts a white church with a steeple and instructs people to 'Come to Church'.
Dating from the Elizabethan era, the hotel became the focal point of the Adwalton horse fair 1577 when John Brooke of the hotel was granted a charter to hold it. The hotel was demolished in 1964 and was situated at the corner of King Street and Wakefield Road. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Wakefield Road King Street White Hart Hotel | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
