Does anyone know where these buildings are in Leeds?

Threads like this one are great in that they bring up names of streets or passage ways in the central area of Leeds that I suspect many of us never notice when we are passing. It was not that many months back when I first spotted Wormald Row. Others for example not that far away include Short Street and Change Alley (that's gated though). There is a Wine Street that runs off Infirmary Street.This is a link to a photo in Leodis taken 14 August 1939 that is a view from Wormald Row looking to Albion Street. The photo also shows Upper Fountaine Strret. http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?reso ... PLAY=FULLI wonder what the street sign states?

I wonder why the photo has the 28 feet height measure? Because it was going to be demolished. A lot of pics on Leodis are similar.
