Site of former Wyther Park Community Centre

Viewed from the Houghley Gill footpath. A rectangular area within the Raynville Crescent Public Open Space, surrounded by metal fencing, and with evidence of previous floodlighting. I presumed it was a sports facility of some kind, but now disused and overgrown. However a subsequent planning application for housing on the site gave its previous use as the "Wyther Park Community Centre". Another document on Leeds Council website reveals that this was "used [from] 2006 until 2010 as a community hub for training and activities [but] there is no longer a demand for this facility".
