Editor's choice

                                                                                               

          Annual Feast Week, Yeadon, c1800 - c1900

 

           This weeks image from a bygone age when Yeadon folk and many from the surrounding area

enjoyed a day and evening out on and at the attractions.

 

          Here on the left we see two young ladies descending from a fairground ride. 

    The little girl in the white dress appears to be holding a toffee apple, whilst on the right the boy is

giving the camera a doubtful glance.
