Cheers Chris. Interesting to see on the Otley map that what is now Leeds Road fizzles out before it reaches Pool Bank. And Yeadon was tiny!

It was found in the back pocket of someone's breeches...

PS It's working again. Now I've found the twin maps/aerial view feature, I'll be on this site for months!!!

(shhhhhh! notice SL has stayed on its feet since the hosting move to, erm, that Manchester place....)
Yes that's what I got the other night - had a little laugh, but when it's good, it's very, very good

It certainly is. If time-travel was possible, and you went back to somewhere you know on these maps, I reckon you'd be hard-pushed to recognise where you were! There are so few landmarks on them which have survived.

That’s true! The last time I was in Leeds I was trying to drive around using the parish church as a landmark. They’d left the church where it was but moved all the roads [and I'd only been away twenty years]!

...not to mention Briggate's mysterious moving pubs. Everytime I go in The Ship, The Angel, Whitelock's, etc, they're in a different order...

Thank you for all your messages about the recently launched Leeds Tithe Map Digital Resource. I hope that it will prove useful with your various research enquiries.
I notice that one or two people experienced a few issues getting the system to work properly when they first went to the site. This is becasue the resource that is online at present is a prototype and there are one or two issues still to be resolved before it is fully functioning, including, as some of the more eagle-eyed users will have no doubt noticed, the correct naming of a couple of the datasets (the two historic OS datasets currently in the system date from around 1840-50 and 1910, not from the dates shown in the prototype).
We hope that the final version of the resource will be available in the next week or so, so please keep checking!
Kind regards,
Peter Lythe, Project Manager, Tracks in Time: The Leeds Tithe Map Project.
