I was wondering if someone may be able to help please.I am after some pics of North Street and/ or Sheepscar interchange area pre demolition ( ie 70's and earlier)I notice Phil D has one from the 1970s and also a chap called ManxPhil. These are both on Flicker. Phil D if you see this can you tell me where you got the pic and if you have any others? manxphil, also I was interested if you use this site and if so if you took the pictures you have and if there are more like them.Any help as usual would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

Have you tried searching the threads about the Roscoe Lee, there was quite a bit found about the early history and I'm sure there were pis too.The Sheepscar/Gipton Becks offerings had some too I think.

I have a few, mostly with a transport theme... trams. They are all copyright, but ok for private use.

All mine were from Leodis Lee.There is a lot on there. The funny thing is Leodis tags are very poor. You have to be very specific, and often the pics you want are tagged totally wrong. I came across a lot of the North St/Sheepscar pics searching for Sheepscar beck.

Hi, thanks for all your responses, It is this one though that I found interesting...http://www.flickr.com/photos/46196382@N ... stream/and the one that is linked to it.Never seen these before and wondered if they were from peoples own personal collections?I'm really after a aerial view of the old Golden Cross junction (ie north street/ chapeltown road/ meanwood road area before it was all altered to make the sheepscar interchange. I wonder if any were taken before they did the alterations in the 80s?
