That's an interesting link Brunel. I've only had a quick glance so far and in the 'Leeds in World War II' section there is a photo of damage to a staircase at Leeds Town Hall. In the related text it states "This damage to Leeds Town Hall was done in the so-called Quarter Blitz of 15 March 1941. This was one of the worst raids suffered by the city...The staircase...is still standing, although a large part of the Town Hall had to be rebuilt following the bombing". The latter bit is news to me as I was under the impression that the Town Hall suffered no bomb damage.

I remember this site from last year and the fun Phil and I had trying to find the bombed semi detached house on page 839 of the Leeds in WW2 section.
