Those of you who like a challenge may be interested in the stream of photos here: http://snipurl.com/27nw6eAll scanned from a 1930's West Riding Constabulary road safety bookletApart from the junction of the A58 and A659 at Collingham which others have identified (and I would never have got ....... though once told it's obvious!) the remainder are unidentified!

The link you have posted is a dud Grumpytramp. But it should work from this link here now http://snipurl.com/27nw6e

Thanks Phil ......... I have edited the OP and corrected the link [the @ symbol in Flickr addresses seems to upset the hyperlinks]

I'm not sure why, but that's how it is. To embed them and make them work on S.L, you have to reformat the link on snip url herehttp://snipurl.com/site/index

But it's like the old days, you made do and mend, so it still retains some charm with all of it's faults I guess

I'd say that the 'Fifth Down, Left Hand Column' looks very much like the 'Cock & Crown' (pub) junction on (A638 ) Doncaster Road at Crofton, as is already statedThis is to the south of Wakefield, with the War Memorial on the right of the picture, & 'the Cock' to the leftThe Photographer is facing in the Wakefield directionSE 375 187 on OS sheets 110/111To possibly add weight to this location, the Wakefield area 'Traffic' training/development school is in Crofton, but I have absolutely no idea how many years it's been there.
