Description: | 1958.
On the left edge of this view, number 246 Lower Wortley Road can just be seen, set back from the pavement. Moving right is a former fish and chip cafe, run by Mrs Hetelena Booth, offering fish, chips, peas, bread and butter for two shillings
(2/-). Using the retail price index this would be around ?1.75 today or about the equivalent of ?4.40 using present average earnings as a guide. On the arched windows there are the slogans "Robert Wiffen, Fish - from port to pan" and "Bob's, The Terminus Fisheries". There is an alternative entrance to number 240 on the side of this building. Number 238 follows to the right set back from the road with the doorway of Ellisons butchers at number 236 seen on the right edge. The blurred image of a small boy is seen as he runs in front of the fish and chip shop and two children are visible on the right. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Lower Wortley Road | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
