Lock Lane

River Aire weir 1916

Over the river, to the north of the town centre, is Lock Lane, an area named after the street that runs through it. Most of the streets off the lane are terraced with no front gardens.

From Mill Lane there is a good view of the weir on the river. The left picture is from 1916 viewing towards Lock Lane and showing the weir.

On the way into Lock lane is this delightful scrap yard sculpture (right).
