Pine Apple Inn, Quarry Hill

Can anyone help with this query? This is the Pine Apple Inn, which stood at 32 High Street, Quarry Hill, photographed in 1901. It was run at this time by my great great great uncle Joe (that's him standing by the door.)Can anyone pinpoint exactly which building it was on the following old map?Many thanks in advance. I'll post some Leodis pictures of the back of the pub, which may help. I can't figure out where it was on the map precisely.

Here's the map. Godfrey OS map, Leeds (Headrow) 1847, sheet 11.

And three pics of the rear.One.Note the pub sign above the back door in the distance. I wonder if the building on the right with the slatted window was the brewhouse? On the original print, it says "Home Brewed Ales" in the window. The poster has a tantalizing mention of the Pineapple on it.

Two. Showing the pub sign above the back door.

Three.The rear entrance is just beyond the down-pipe. Note the slatted box on the roof. Something to do with brewing?

I reckon (drum roll) that....it's the property above the 'k' in Back High street.The adjacent property has to have a yard so the picture across the back can be taken. The picture at the back shows a long building wwith a narrow yard to the back of the building. The fenced off bit at the fron is on the left side of the front door. The property above the 'k' has these three things. However, the picture looking down the back street suggests it's further down unless that's due to the perspective of the photo.

You could be right, Cardiarms. However, there are a couple of anomolies. The back door is flush with next door's in pic 2, but set back on the map. Also, the numbering (no. 32) should put the pub about level with the first T of Back High Street.What do you think?

Here's the 1906 map. Looks like there's been some demolition going on.

If the pub is a through terrace that limits the options as most of those shown are bac to backs
