There are 3 very nice designs on the floor of County Arcade, Leeds, that may not be really noticed as people walk over them. I took these 3 photos today (June 29 2016) just after 12:20 while in County Arcade when sheltering from the rain! The first photo is the design nearest to Vicar Lane, the second is in the middle of the arcade where it connects with the Victoria Quarter arcade and the third is that nearest to Briggate. It took some 'waiting' to not get too many people in view, so I had to take photos while I could and not worry that they may not be well composed! It would be good to be able to take photos looking down from the balcony in the arcade.

The middle picture takes me back to very nearly 60 years ago, Striding into the Mecca Locarno straight ahead, Greenwood's Mens Outfitters left and Etam ladies shoe shop on the right. Thanks.
