We take a look at Parson Cross over the past 75 years, these photographs may well evoke some fond memories for many of our readers.
You may even recognise a few of the faces along the way.
Originally built in the 1930s, Parson Cross was developed initially as a housing estate to help the city cater to its ever increasing size. Things are expected to change for the area with big plans afoot following last year’s announcement of the government’s £20million 10-year investment plan.
Do you remember going to the West Riding County Library before its name was changed to Parson Cross Library?
What about the chippy on Buchanan Road? How about renting the recent blockbuster film release from Mista Video?
Take a look at the gallery below and see how much Parson Cross as changed over the years.
