Has anyone got any old maps they can upload of this area pls. Or any info about it's past history. I'm particulary interested in, and around the old Quarry area. The two bits of industry on either side of the railway and river e.t.c. There's all sorts of bits and pieces left around there. Old air raid shelters, hopper type structures e.t.c.I know we've covered that area before. But any new info on that area would be great. I've found something down there i'd like to suss out if at all possible.

This is what i'm a bit puzzled about. It's situated where the Aire valley dyeworks was in the rock face. Looking at your map Si it would have been hid away by the building until it got flattened. It points in the Quarry direction underneath Pollard lane.
