Title
Kirkstall Station, Leeds - DNT00172
Description
The station on the Leeds & Bradford Railway’s Aire Valley Line opened at the same time as the line in 1846 which became part of the MR network. A new station, the Leeds Platform seen here, was built when the line was quadrupled in about 1905 and the label across the image coupled with the advertising boards still to be fixed to the fence suggest the photo was taken about the time of completion. Unfortunately it is not possible to make out the date on the poster. In the background the ruins of Kirkstall Abbey.
