I think this is the big place that’s still there?http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?reso ... er=8168And over Buslingthorope lane, Stonegate looks interesting. Nothing there now. Is there still a, path down and over the beck? It looks like there is from google but it may be fenced off?http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?reso ... 6_42484683 DING DONG!!!! Right on the money with the "Not Scott Hall" that's the baby actually on Scott Wood Lane and as all can see a very grand house stuck in the middle of mills, market gardens and quarries.I'd love to know it's age (anybody have a view) and whose it was. I guess at the top floor being for textiles early on and a second guess Stepehnson the market Gardener had it as he's the guy listed bt Liits as living on Scott Wood Lane.Well worth anyone just taking 5 mins to go look and two mins further on a stone building of more interest....

If anybody knows any different.... I make that red building you mark to be just on the other side of today's scott hall road, sheepscar street being extended northwards to make scott hall road and possibly right through this building and it's neigbouring cottages. In fact the sheepscar pub is probably built pretty much close to that site?Buslingthorpe Vale cottage? that Phil photographed (a horrendously ugly old building and I love old domestic dwellings) is further down and as Cardiarms says opposite Spring Hill so it's a mystery. Could it be a pub?I must go back and have a further look, Shame you didn't have a walk and a photo up scott wood lane Phil.Wonderful photos of the old housing Cardiarms Scott Hall St and Buslingthorpe Vale GREAT....Are we having an expedition to save the Bus Vale street sign for Seceret Leeds archives???

This view from Bing seems to be the same as the "Scott Hall" in Leodis. It is marked as Scott Hall in the 1851 map, but Scott Hall cottage on the 1906 map.

So it's as old as 1851 and probably older - wow - bet they don't conserve that the beaurocrats!!It's a grand house not a cottage - well worth a look and in good condition would even be a stand out in Park square...MIKE - do you have an image of the "barn" that is just further up the lane????

However, here's the one showing the whole building. The street sign is to the far right.This "horrendously ugly old building" does look like it could have been a pub. Note the larger downstairs windows and possible "shadow" of a pub sign running above them.

Quite a bit older, I would guess, Parksider. I'm no expert, but it looks early Georgian to me, possibly mid 1700s?, going by the pronounced "quoins" on the corners. I like the fact that it's not truly symmetrical like most substantial houses of the period. Lovely entrance too!Surely it's listed - Grade II at least?

Not come out quite as well as the other. I take it that this is the barn.

One of the entries on Leodis describes it as 'Queen Anne' style. Not sure when that is but roughly 'Georgian'.
