Description: | 1940s. Brunswick Street, Dawson Hill, Victoria Road and part of New Brighton and Asquith Avenue as seen from the air in the late 1940s. The Dartmouth Arms and all the houses in or around Morley Hole at the centre left of the picture have disappeared except for one - Fanny Stringer's bakery. Scatcherd Park Avenue in the bottom centre is only half completed and all the old houses around the Prospect and Providence Mills are still in existence, as is Jos. Hirst's Yard where the outbreak of cholera first appeared in Morley in 1849. The Rehoboth Chapel and Sunday School building can be seen towards the centre left. The large house next to Hillycroft looks to have been built with stables which appear to be back to back with Jos. Hirst's Row.
