More about this scene

In this view, taken over sixty years later, the tram lines can still be seen. Headingley had once been a small village to the north of Leeds and its population in 1775 was estimated at 667 people. However, like Leeds the population had doubled by 1801 and continued to rise dramatically over the coming decades.
