These are some photographs I inherited taken by grandfather in late 1920's around Leeds and later Ramsgate when ho moved to his first job as as a town gas plant engineer. I have cleaned them up as best as I can and they are either scanned from original negatives or contact prints of indifferent quality as some are fading.

Leeds, Wellington Street (MR). My grandfather is the chap next to the engine facing the camera. Negative.
