Description: | C1960
The Oddfellows Building at the junction of Fountain Street and Oddfellow Street. The ground floor was occupied by two shops between which was the entrance to the upper floors. On the right was P. Dearnley and Son, Booksellers, Stationers, Newsagents and Radio and Electrical Dealers, while on the left was R. H. Rees, Bakers and Confectioners. Living quarters for the shopkeepers was immediately above the central portion. The Oddfellows Hall was originally built for a Friendly Society. When this failed to attract business the hall was used for Billiards and Snooker, but the picture was taken as part of a series in the Morley Observer dealing with Churches and Chapels in the town when it was being used by Morley National Spiritualist Church. Much housing, including this, was demolished for Siegen Close. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Oddfellows Fountain Street Morley National Spiritualist Church Oddfellows Street | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
