1950s/2006: In the left view Harrogate Road (Victoria Avenue) runs across the top from left to right.
The High Street comes down from the right hand corner, Moorfield Mill is above the White Swan cricket ground.
On the left behind the mill is Moorfield House, once the home of William Murgatroyd who built the mill.
The 2006 photo looks across the High Street to a fish restaurant which is on the site of the Moorfield Mill, when the restaurant was being converted from a car showroom it was decided to name it after the original mill owner.
