These houses have been built on the former site of Chapel Allerton Hospital. To the left behind the trees you can see part of Gledhow Grove, built in the 1830's. It was first used as a hospital in the first world war and expanded significantly later. An archive photo from 1950 can be seen on the Leodis website http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?ID=2002325_44428652&DISPLAY=FULL
