Leeds in the 1970s

An un-appetising title perhaps, but here is a compelling set of photos from a photographer with a good eye. The series has some of the flavour of those 'Decaying Detroit' photo-stories one sees nowadays, but with the added quirks of 1970s Britain. "Authorities in Leeds prided themselves on the fact that part of the city's inner ring road was a motorway" - it was a different world then.
