SecretLeeds - History, culture and architecture in Leeds

What a fantastic forum!I'm male and in my 40's so very interested in the pubs of the 70's and 80's and links to things like the old cinema's.I could spend hours on hereProbably not good form to ask for something on my first post, but here goes :-)I'm really desperate to hold of some pictures from where I used to live when I was a youngster. It was the Belle Vue Road, Victoria Terrace area bordering on the old St Michaels College (back of) and the schools I used to go to which were St Anne's infants at the back of Park Lane College and St Anne's Juniors which was near to what is now the Faversham pub. Would also like to know if the Faversham is what used to be known as the "Bishops House"Hopefully I will be able to contribute bits and pieces going forwardFor any Leeds fans out there, here's some interesting pictures of Elland Roadhttp://www.wafll.com/wafll-gallery/Elland_RoadAn excellent site for those fellow sufferers!

Austhorpe White, you may be interested in the comment on page 9 of Leeds Lost Schools (http://www.secretleeds.com/forum/Messag ... essage=200) on this forum. It gives details of the 'Bishop's House@ and St Annes.

Thanks for that, until seeing that I always thought the Bishops House was turned into the Fav, similar exterior, nice to see both of them in the same pictureCheers!
