Description: | 1967. View of Adel Grange, a large stone built house, situated on Adel Grange Close. It is noted as being the home, between 1865 and 1922, of Isabella Ford, a reputed trade unionist, socialist, women's suffrage campaigner and peace activist. She was a founder member of the Leeds Tailoresses Union and the Leeds Women's Suffrage Society, and later became involved with the Independant Labour Party. Her Quaker family background led her to be a pacifist and she campaigned for peace and disarmament during the First World War. Adel Grange is now a residential care home. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Adel Grange Close Adel Grange Isabella Ford | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=93... | Go to resource |
