That's another amazing find cardiarms.    

Thanks - did the Meat market and Abbatoir ever get built?http://uk.archiseek.com/england/victori ... /0003.html

What a great find!If you click on the 'Yorkshire' area it lists Bungalows, Seacroft, Yorkshire (perhaps Seacroft wasn't considered part of Leeds then - or perhaps the list has been complied by someone who doesn't know the area?).Now I can't place these, so I wonder if they were ever built, or if they were demolished before my time? Anyone have any ideas?

Can't say that ai can place those as ever having been in existance - with a date of 1906 you'd have thought there would be some trace still. Not seen any other pics which I could say may be them either.

There's also a proposed tower for St Bartholomew's in Armley which wasn't built (I must say, I prefer the tower which was eventually built and which exists today).

It's very unusual to see a gable-ended tower on a church like that. I prefer the existing tower, too. Anyone know why those houses in Davey's post are called "bungalows" when they clearly have an upstairs?

'Bungalow' is a style that has gradually become associated with single story buildings.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bungalow
