Description: | August 1959. Cornfields at Cartlidges farm off Rooms Lane, Morley, with the fields already harvested after one of the hottest and driest summers of the century. The view is looking towards the back of Daffil Road, Churwell, with right on the horizon Skelton Grange Power Station. The following year the track to the farm was tarmacced and in the field on the left four huge turkey rearing sheds were built. Another dozen years on and the field on the right was a deep cutting for the M621 motorway, i.e. the link from Leeds to the M62 at Gildersome.
