Description: | This watercolour painting by Pete Lapish shows Kirkgate busy with trams. The vehicle on route 18 to Crossgates, left, is a Horsfield tramcar waiting for passengers to board outside the Kirgate Market buildings, seen at the left edge. An ex-London Feltham tram is about to turn to its left to eventually proceed along Duncan Street. Behind the trams is the red brick building of J.Gillinson, Gibbon & Demaine Ltd., wholesale drapers, of numbers 1 to 13 New York Street. To the right of it there is a branch of the Yorkshire Penny Bank at number 23 Kirkgate. At the right-hand edge Leeds Parish Church of St. Peter is visible in the background.
