View of Alf Cooke's Crown Point Printing Works on Hunslet Road. Alfred Cooke bought premises for his printing works in the early 1870s near Crown Point Bridge. These were destroyed by fire in 1880 and he bought this new site on Hunslet Road. After a fire in 1894 the premises were again rebuilt to the same designs of Thomas Ambler, including a clock tower.
By 1895 it was the largest printing works in the world. A urinal is in the middle of the road in the foreground. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Crown Point Printing Works Alf Cooke | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
