The Off-Licence shop on the left hand side was built with the stone from the pub the ‘Pick and Hammer’ at Carlton, which was demolished in 1883, so this gives an idea of the date of the picture. I think that the pub got the name of ‘Pick and Hammer’ from the building of the railway tunnel at Bramhope, and it did become rather rowdy, and it closed after a few warnings.

This house in the middle was a shop during the war years & was owned by Nancy Hargreaves which sold food & other household goods when she could get them from the suppliers!! her husband’s name was Fred Hargreaves & they had a son called Tommy who I understand became a Medical Consultant in London.
The little cottage on the left was where the Taylors lived Eric Taylor married Fred Browns daughter from the farm opposite the Yeadon cemetery.
