| Ashworth Street (Woodhouse) (2 comments) |
 | Undated.
View of Ashworth Street which ran from St. Marks Road, down across Holborn Street and ended at the back gardens of houses which fronted Institution Street. The back of the Methodist Church is visible in the distance, which fronted Woodhouse Street. Further into the distance Quarry Mount School can be seen, the building with the clock tower. To the right of the tower, on the skyline is the top thirty or forty feet of the Leeds Corporation refuse destructor chimney. It is located on Meanwood Road in Meanwood Valley and believed to be the tallest chimney for many miles at approximately 240 feet (73 metres).

| Churchfield Place (Woodhouse) |
| Undated.
View of Churchfield Place which ran parallel with Ashworth Street. In the distance Quarry Mount School, with distinctive clock tower, is visible. Also seen the very tall refuse destructor chimney on the skyline which is located on Meanwood Road. Also in the picture is Quarry Street up past the school to where it meets Hartley Grove. The photograph was possibly taken on a Monday, traditionally washing day, judging by the many lines of washing pegged across the street to dry.

| Cross Quarry Street, looking towards Quarry Mount Primary School (Woodhouse) |
| 1970.
View looking along Cross Quarry Street towards Quarry Mount Primary School at the junction with Quarry Street. It would seem to be school finishing time as children appear to be walking home from school, some with parents, and cars are parked outside. The clock is showing half past three. Quarry Mount Primary School dates back to Victorian times when it opened as a Council School.
