No problem - glad to be of assistance.

I was excited to find the Burley Hill house still there as I think many of them on that stretch have been knocked down for newer houses built in the 1930s. They would have had a great view across the valley to West Leeds, though I think there were a lot of mills and other industries near the river at that time so I imagine it was quite smoky.

Any other locations you are interested in, feel free to let me know!

I have been to upstate New York and to Toronto - both very different from Leeds!

Best wishes

Andrea
