I don't know if these have been mentioned, I've searched and nothing came back at me. The Newlands on Hyde Park Road, burned down in the riots, Stoggys later Caspers now demolished and student flats in its place. And the Little Park (above) also on Hyde Park road closed by the cops, now turned into flats.

The Bridgefield, Cross Green, is no more. Empty for many years- it has been totally demolished over the past couple of days.

The sad sight of the Albion - surely one of Leeds most iconic pubs - boarded up.Once upon a time, when the owners of Tetley's cared about such things, a blue plaque was put up on the corner of the Albion. It reads;THE ALBIONby virtue of its historic interest merits the titleA HERITAGE INN“The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”[L.P.Hartley]
