Description: | Undated.
Image shows the lake in Middleton Park referred to as 'the fishpond' on Teal's Map of 1786. It is a natural lake although has been landscaped several times. It was probably used in the early nineteenth century as drainage for old coal pits situated within the parkland. Boating was once an available leisure activity and curling took place in the evening on the frozen lake in the early 1900s. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Lake Middleton Park | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
