View of the canteen at the sheet metal pressings factory of T.F. & J.H. braime Ltd. in Ingham Street. It is taken from the top of the stairs leading down to the shelters/cellars where patterns and moulds are stored. The windows behind the serving counter can be seen from Hunslet Road. The factory was opened by brothers, Thomas and Harry Braime in 1911. They went on to provide this canteen, the first in Leeds, in 1917. Opened by Princess Mary, the canteen played its part in the war effort by offering regular hot meals to the mainly female workers. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Ingham Street Braime | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
