Watercolour painting by artist, Pete Lapish, showing the Headingley Tram Depot on Otley Road. On the left is a Horsfield tram on route number 1 to Lawnswood. On the right the corporation bus is travelling on route 93 into Leeds. A Chamberlain tram is visible in the centre background, just emerging from the depot. The artist was familiar with this area as he regularly travelled by tram, or cycled, to Lawnswood School (Leeds Modern) as a boy. At the right edge is the Woodman Hotel, now known as Woodies Ale House, at number 104 Otley Road, located at the junction with St. Chad's Road.
