Thank Goodness you've supplied the answer. It was driving me mad! My sister used to work on Cookridge Street in the old picture house building, (she worked on the weekly LOP). You'd think I'd have known the answer as I was on Cookridge Street often enough.

Or are you just saying where your sister worked anyway, Caron?

The intrepid Jogon must have started his StreetView expeditionary exploits by searching for Cookridge Street and then navigated around the corner onto (Norman) Rossington Street. That's where this narrow entrance is.

ROSSington Street and Andrew Sachs.

Hi Leodian. Now, Andrew Sachs means nothing to me. Was it Leonard Sachs who did The Good Old Days from Leeds City Varieties? If so then I remember him. ROSSington...???? Not with you there either. To be honest, I've not been so confused in ages. What is the mummy at the back door all about??? I'm laughing still!!!!SnP I don't mind at all but the longer this thread grows the more confused I am.
