Description: | 3rd May 1945. This half timbered Tudor house, which was the last half timbered house in Leeds was demolished in 1948 with the half promise of reconstruction at Killingbeck. It was then decided that the building was too badly damaged for this to be practical. Some of the parts were recycled, such as The Inglenook fireplaces and some of the panelling. Some of the plasterwork went into store. The Oak beams have totally disappeared. The coat of arms was attached to a wall in Killingbeck. This farm was originally called White Bridge Farm and is also known as Wykebeck Farm not to be confused with Wykebeck Farm in Halton. Wykebridge Farm was where the houses on Diadem Drive have been built. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Wykebridge Farm Inglenook fireplace Tudor house | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=89... | Go to resource |
