SecretLeeds - History, culture and architecture in Leeds

I saw this photograph in a year-old Daily Mail article and was wondering if anyone could recognise it and maybe tell me if it's still standing?
I know that this is somewhere in West Yorkshire.
Thanks.

Before I retired I went into so many abandoned Mlls like this in Yorks and Lancashire, they were all so similar.
trying to locate this one I googled "Old Mill pictures Daily Mail 2014" and although I did not find this one, there are some fascinating, yet sad pictures on, well worth a look.
Good luck with your search.

Is it Holmes Laxton & Co ???

That's it without a doubt Michael

Blimey I was with JCD on this one that they are many so similar. Of course given the provenance of the photo's in Uncle Mick's link and the graffiti we have either a very unlikely coincidence or almost certainly a match and identification.

Well done uncle mick what a star.

One of the saddest sights I have seen regarding empty factory's was going through room after room (each one the size od a football pitch) at Burton's, Hudson Road. Trouser rooms and Coat rooms all with the sewing machines, cottons and pin up pictures of various film stars pinned up over the workplaces. it was ghostly, just as though all the workforce had just stepped outside. I had been in the Canteen many times when the workers were having lunch and the noise was deafening. I was told at the time that up to 5000 people could be accommodated at one sitting. Just about every family in Harehills had someone who worked there so if you needed trousers shortening, letting out/ in or anything in the alteration line doing the Compton Road area was the place to go.
