In the foreground is the track bed of the former Yeadon Railway line, it was a goods line linked to the Guiseley line.
It was proposed that it could be used as a subway for children attending the school seen in the background.
This scheme was abandoned and the old track bed is now a green path linking Yeadon and Guiseley. (May 2014)
