Description: | Undated,
Postcard view of the White Cloth Hall. This was the gatehouse, the ampola was taken from the previous White Cloth Hall (2nd). Built in 1775/6 it was designed as a courtyard with surrounding stalls for weavers to display their cloth. The building of the railway line brought trade to an end, as it went through the Hall, this was 1864/5. The Hall was then used as a warehouse by various trades. Here it was occupied by A.J. Knowles and Sons, provision merchant. They are listed in 1906 directories, also Bosphorus metal polish. the building has now been restored and is a restaurant and shopping area. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Crown Street White Cloth Hall | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
