Description:
1969 A child runs down a cobbled street of red brick terraced houses, thought to be the Hyde Park area, possibly in the Verduns. The square tower of All Hallows Church in Regent Terrace looms in the background.

Is the large building just below the church tower, facing the camera, the Queens Road All Hallows annexe? In which case the corner shop in the middle of the picture would be on Alexandra Road and the foremost cobbled street would be in the "Kelsalls" Difficult to be certain after all these years.

We are looking for people pictured by Swiss photographer Eric Jaquier in Leeds in 1968-1969 to make a TV documentary about them.

What a change! this street is now likely to be full of a mixture of green, brown and black wastebins. The lack of litter even in 1969 is commendable compared with todays streets. The old house fireplace worked wonders in recycling 'waste to energy'. If filters could be designed to provide clean air at house level, we could all benefit from reducing landfills, transport collections and dumping plus gaining the recycled heat.

I would agree with Doug's (first comment), that the road is Kelsall Grove. Had it been the Verduns the road in the distance,close to the church, would have been Hyde Park Road and been much steeper falling right to left.

The street top right is almost certainly Alexandra Crescent where my gran lived at the top right side of the hill, next to the Co-op.
