A sign of Leeds - but where is it?

This sign is fixed to a tree, rather than a post and it somehow just doesn't look right. This picture was taken when stuck in a queue of traffic (there's a clue!) but where is it?(Also posted on the Secret Leeds flickr group)

Erm. I shall scrutinise that.I'll add the link to the flickr Secret Leeds group where your pic is.You can view it large size there for clues http://www.flickr.com/groups/secretleeds/I'm not sure where it is yet. You had Radio 1 on at 5.14 p.m though

Foundry Lane near where you used to turn left.

Very good - just at the first chicane up the hill, roughly level with the flats (Parkway Court?).I don't recall seeing too many horses around those parts, so it seems that the sign is working....Sadly there is no prize, just the warm feeling of satisfaction you are already experiencing as you read this

It's a very small sign stuck to your windscreen.

No chance. Mrs Chameleon was passing by the screen and chirpily declared that sign's on Foundry Lane......So - no points to me there

Google Street View here, oddly with no sign present.http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=l ... 2.21,,0,5I wonder when it was placed there then? It must be fairly recently.
