Description: | April 1965.
View looking south along Queen Street from the level of Morley Town Hall clock one Sunday morning. On the right of the photograph are the roofs of the Town Hall buildings, Sheard's Chemists and a parade of shops, since destroyed, with a small gap then for the entrance to Zion Yard. Then there are the 1895 Charles Scarth shops, Woolworths and Boots, and finally the tall Queen Street Wesleyans Sunday School building. On the left hand side are the M.I.C.S.L. Emporium, the Exchange Buildings, the entrance to Hope Street, the Queen's Hotel, two pairs of 19th century shops, and the flat roofed Burton's tailor's, long used as the Y.E.B. showrooms after this shop closed. Then there is the entrance to Peel Street with shops at the corner, and beyond these, at a slightly higher level, the block containing F. W. Rhodes Ltd., electrical contractors. On the horizon there are still quite a few mill chimneys left in the town.
