  • Please note spelling mistake on one of the slides - should be 'Kirkgate' not 'Kirgate'
    Bit late to amend, but ah well, these things happen ;-)
    Showing the past and what the areas around Wakefield looks like today - with a little bit of history at the start ;-)

    Hideous modern vandalism much in evidence. If only they could have just left everything as it was! Thanks for posting these fascinating pictures.

    Really good to see this documented for posterity, especially now that Wakey is changing massively once again. Hope you keep documenting the changes as on ongoing record.
    I know we all call it Kirgut in Wakefield, but it is spelled Kirkgate...not being picky, but records like this are important and are best if they're accurate👍

    It's Kirkgate not Kirgate. It's called Kirkgate because Kirk means Church, the church is Chantry Chapel.

      yep sorry about that, just an overlook when you type fast and forget to check!😅
      At least i got it right for the 'old Bradford' Kirkgate😁

    Kirkgate rather than Kirkgate. Kirk meaning church.
