This Primitive Methodist Chapel was built in 1874, and is now used by a building company.

The weir on the River Aire by Kirkstall Abbey, taken about sunset in January

Looking south over the weir. The river approaches from the right of this picture, and turns right to go down the weir. To the left, out of the picture, is the sluice gate that leads into the goit (a man made channel taking water to a mill).

A goit is a man-made channel, which carries water from a river to drive a mill further down stream. This picture was taken from the platform above the sluice gates where the goit starts by the weir at Kirkstall Abbey.

This is the sluice gate at the entrance to the goit (millrace) which leaves the River Aire at the weir by Kirkstall Abbey. The weir is out of the picture at the right. The small building presumably houses the controls for the sluice gate.

Looking SE to where the canal joins this particular square.
©Steve Partridge
The occupants of the adjoining houses seem to have been using the canal as a means of ridding themselves of unwanted items. I hope they are all very happy wallowing in the mess they have made of this area.

On the north side of the railway line, between the station and Queenswood Drive

A disused building on the south side of the railway line, seen from the path leading under the line to the north platform. The backs of the platform signs can be seen above the wall.

Looking from the south of the railway line. The steps just beyond the bridge on the right go up to the platform on the north (Leeds bound)side.

At the end of the south (Harrogate bound) platform, looking towards the bridge (or tunnel). The junction of Queenswood Drive and Kirkstall Lane is on top of the bridge.
