Pullman Crescent
The name refers to luxury trains of the 20th century, and was chosen presumably because the birch-covered embankment to the left marks the course of a former railway - one which I'm sure never saw a Pullman train, and probably not even a passenger train, as it was a freight branch to the Farnley Ironworks. See https://westleedsdispatch.com/marks-history-reminders-of-past-in-new-wortley-housing-estate/ for a photo before the housing development showing the old bridge abutments.

New Housing Development off Royds Lane
Royds Lane used to continue to the left of the photograph and pass through a tunnel under the railway line. This section has been renamed Honeybourne Road and it climbs the hill to the right. The Development has been built by Taylor Wimpey and is called Royds Lane Mount. The road to the right of the photograph is the service / deliveries access to the Makro wholesale warehouse.

Piebridge Way
These houses are a recent development on the site of the LNWR's Farnley and Wortley Engine Shed (built 1882, I haven't found the date of closure but probably before the end of steam in 1967). See https://westleedsdispatch.com/marks-history-reminders-of-past-in-new-wortley-housing-estate/ for more background.
