| Shell Lane, from a watercolour painting (Calverley) |
 | View of Shell Lane from Woodhall Road, photographed from a watercolour painted in 1912. It is one of a collection of slide transparencies now owned by the Parish Church of St. Wilfrid showing the watercolours of Fred Swaine, a Calverley artist (1858 - 1942). This particular painting is signed with the name W. Hunt, possibly a friend or colleague who was known to the Swaine family. The first time Shell Lane appeared on record was in 1693.
