The Park ( previously Little Park) on the Burley/hyde park border. Now converted to flats - in a bit of 'state' at present

The City of Mabgate - Great Pub, Great name, Great Building. I was so sad and angry when this Leeds institution closed - If i had the money I'd buy it and reopen it. At least its not being demolished but converted to flats I believe.

Another lovely old building - the Spotted cow in Holbeck - boarded up but perhaps not dead yet.

Thought you'd like that one Phill !- I assume you know exactly where it is ?

Spotted Cow is an ace building. They can't possibly pull that one down! The cynic in me says they will, since it's a small building on a larger plot. Expect a mundane looking three-storey block of flats on that site in the next couple of years.

I believe the building that was the Bay Horse is still down the yard - its marked on old maps - I'll get a pic next time i'm in town Yes it is the very same Drapsey. I'm shocking with recollecting names. I had the briefest glimpse as i hurried past down the yard. It looks very interesting with Either tiles or glazed brick.. I must try for a better look a quiet morning...

I certainly do Drapsey... I remember fixing some broken tables in there for the landlord years ago. Guess who give him all his money back buying beer?
