Description: | April 1965. The view from Morley Town Hall Tower looking north-east towards Leeds, though nothing beyond the pit tip at Churwell is really visible. In the foreground are Morley Public Library and part of Morley Co-op's warehouse department with the chimney helping to supply the whole Co-op complex with central heating. Across the other side of Commercial Street is the Sunday School building for St. Mary's-in-the-Wood church and to the right of this Brighton Square has just been demolished along with houses at the end of Marshall Street just beyond. The road joining Commercial Street at the left hand side is Zoar Street, which is bordered right the way along on both sides by late Victorian terrace housing. The road that seems to be a continuation of this is actually Daisy Hill, where it is possible to see the start of some new housing and the remains of Daisy Hill Mill shortly to be pulled down.
