Westerly Croft under construction in Armley Road. A February storm had caused damage to the building. The flats were completed in 1962 and were 36 metres high on 12 storeys. A similar block, Westerly Rise, was completed in 1963 in Mistress Lane. The junction of Armley Road with Branch Road and Stanningley Road is off camera, right.

| Branch Road Bridge (Wortley) (3 comments) |
| 17th October 1922
Looking up Branch Road, possibly taken from the bridge. On the left is a small shop, Broughton's Ironmongers, then the United Methodist church, a typical Wesleyan building. Next to that is Frank Hartley's Tailors. On the right side of the bridge there are no buildings. In the background there are various houses and it is possible to see a tram in the centre of the photograph.
