Description: | 8th March 1965
View shows Wellington Mills on Mill Green which is the premises of West Riding Paper Services Ltd, waste paper merchants. A lorry loaded with paper and card is just visible on the right edge. The foreground of this view shows a good example of a street paved with stone setts. Although commonly referred to as cobbles, setts are defined as rectangular blocks of dressed stone which were laid in uniform patterns onto a base of sand or gravel. The gaps were sometimes sealed with hot tar. The resulting road surface was very hardwearing and was used extensively throughout Leeds. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Mill Green | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
