Old buildings set back just off the main street. The 1908 map shows that the front of the building to the right (Wheaters Fold) was on the line of the "Municipal, Co. [Constituency?], Parliamentary and Union boundary". The boroughs concerned would have been Bramley (this side) and Pudsey. Both are now in the unitary authority of Leeds. The Union boundary would be the Poor Law Unions of Bramley and North Bierley (including Pudsey) which no longer exist. The Parliamentary constituency between Leeds West and Pudsey now runs along the railway line behind the further houses.
