View of Broadcasting House situated in Woodhouse Lane, the rear building was formerly the Friends Meeting House. In the foreground part of the new studios, opened in 1974, can be seen. Several very old buildings were demolished to make way for the new studios including the workshop of Louis Le Prince, at Number 160 Woodhouse Lane. It was here that he developed and patented the single lens camera in 1888 and went on to make his world famous sequence of moving pictures of everyday activity on Leeds Bridge. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | B.B.C.
