It was a council depot for years, then was closed and sold off for a "housing development", it has lain dormant for a good few years since. PS - there is a long since closed pub just across the way if you are out with your camera Phill....(plus another one a couple of hundred yards down the road). Think we've got the Lion & Lamb some where Davey. Might have a pic or two of the inside as it is now - needs an awful lot of work to bring it up to scratch I think.I'm still searching for a decent picture of Poplar House and ajoining cottages which stood across the road from there, on the corner where Netto is now.

Lodges to Keldholme on Harrogate Road (now haridressers near the Falklands).Other one a little further towards town next to the Queens Arms, forget which one it's from tho, now offices.Have you said the ones to Roundhay Park on Wetherby Road, they're just shells now really....If you're classing it as Leeds there is also the ones for Harewood house.

I may be wrong but I seem to remember thet Meanwood Park Hospital had two different lodges. One, as stated, at the junction of Parkside Road and Tongue Lane, the other, on Tongue Lane itself, where the entrance was - and still is, that leads into the grounds [now housing estate]. Looking on Google Earth / Street View, the Lodge / Gate House seems to have disappeared, but I recall from my many unhappy hours of cricket parctice at Cardinal Heenan, seeing this building

I first posted that link teo or three years ago but comparing it now with other things like the similarly named book illustrated with photos, I can't find any other reference to the Rising SUn (though I#ve heard it before) there is however the New Inn, north of the lodge at the junction with Taylor's Yard opposite. Wonder if they were one and the same, renamed at some point?

You don't seem to have this one on your list, in Newton road, originally the lodge to "Elmhurst". For at least 1872-1893 it was occupied by Robert Jowitt , wool merchant, but by 1916 the main house seems to have disappeared, though the lodge has verger of St Martins living there. then it was named Elmhurst Lodge, though as I remember it, in the 1980s it was called Newton Lodge.http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Chapelt ... 5,,0,-3.33
