Here's a bit of architecture that's just a little different to be found in Leeds, It looks more like it could be found in some shanty town in Brazil. I need to get a better photo of this place later on, It looks amazing!Any ideas where it can be seen?

Meanwood Valley Urban Farm was first guess 'cos of turf roof? But tiles don't match.No, hang on.The Lombardy Poplar right of photo would indicate to me that this is off Gledhow Valley Road. Not too far from "that bench".Looking at the rear of an odd house off Allerton Park.http://g.co/maps/rbwhs

Great deductions Jogon, spot on. You wouldn't know this timber frame house was of the back of that property on the google street view of it.Here's a few wider angle shots of it.And the only bit of info I can find on the net about the Eco house.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/property/335 ... -life.html

I knew someone who lived there for a while, and I had a brief look round once. If I remember rightly, it was split into smaller units and quite a few people lived there. Interesting place and, as you say, an unlikely place for it.
