Yeah, a few of my mates worked there. It was a great laugh in there at times. From what they said, he bolted quickly.

rlHolbeck Baths, where were they then?rl

Holbeck Lane

Stood with your back to Archie Gordon pitch before it was even rlCloverrl

Got reminded of a book on Tuesday nights from my parents which has a very old picture of My Gran in, The book is old photographs of Horsforth compiled by Alan Cockroft and Matthew Young, its a part of the "Archieve Photographs" series

fantastic book with some photos going back to 1870s

Wouldn’t happen to have the ISBN of said book would you? I wouldn't mind having a look at that one.

You're a star - rlcheersrl

Have you tried Holt Park Library ?

They have a load of old photograph books.

Try to steer clear of public libraries TBH they tend to be full of old people avoiding turning the 3-bar on and have a subtle odour of p[sizei[/sizess but out of interest may pop up.

Talking of books the publications from the author Don Cole may interest you – if you don’t know of him (which is probably unlikely) he’s a local Adle/Cookridge historian and has a few books out now.
I have a couple and they do make interesting reading.

You haven't been to Holt Park recently then ?

You'll be surprised

Every book that Don Cole has ever written is in there, they may as well call it "the Don Cole Library"
