Description: | Undated. Morley from the air in either the late 1970s or early 1980s. The foreground stretches from Fountain Street roundabout (left) to the White Horse Inn (right). Chartist's Way has been built through the old Great Northern Railway goods yard; the whole of Cross Street, New Street and Oddfellow Street has been cleared (except for Oddfellow's Hall opposite the old Ebenezer) but no work has begun in building Siegen Manor and Siegen Close. New car parks have been made on High Street (near the White Horse) and on South Queen Street.
In the middle distance, Milton House (Queen Street) has been built but the old Pentecostal Chapel still stands in Morrison's car park. Most of the car parks from the old squares on Commercial Street have been completed but there is no start to the housing e.g. Jubilee House, Hardy Court etc. off Marshall Street.
In the background the Croft House bungalow estate makes up the right hand corner and Scatcherd Park plus the Hopkins Gardens the top left hand corner.
