Built in 1904, architects F Bedford and S Kitson, this distinctive building on North Street was until 1971 a public dispensary (clinic). From 1976 to 2008 home to the Leeds Incorporated Institution for the Blind and the Deaf and Dumb (later Leeds Society for Deaf and Blind People). Briefly used after that by the Yorkshire Spiritualist Association, but at the time of the photo it was being marketed by estate agents as a "refurbishment / redevelopment opportunity". Listed grade 2 (list entry 1375281). For context see Image
