Side door to the Queen's Head, Main Street, Burley in Wharfedale
The Victorian architects liked to play around with antique styles. Here there is a lintel with a 17C shouldered drip-mould over a flattened ogee arch.

The Queen's Head, Main Street, Burley in Wharfedale
The part on the right was evidently a separate building, as the doorway has the inscription “Constitutional Club AD1887”. However the timbering of the gable matches that in the pub gables.

Electricity sub-station, Main Street, Burley in Wharfedale
I suspect that this was built before 1937, when Burley in Wharfedale had its own urban district council and might well have provided the electricity service.

Houses, Main Street, Burley in Wharfedale
The kneelers on the roof suggest that this could be an 18C house with bay-windows added in the late 19C. On the left, why is one of the first-floor windows is so small?

John Clapham's grave, Burley-in-Wharfedale
The burial ground of Salem Chapel
Image was closed by Order in Council in 1896 and all but one of the gravestones have been removed. The exception is that of John Clapham JP, father-in-law of the first owner of The Grange, who had the proprietary chapel built in 1840. The stone notes that his two wives (the first of whom died aged only 30) are buried in Hunslet church - which would be the old church of St Mary before it was rebuilt in 1862
