LYNDHURST
Can anyone help me with this picture.
A recent aquisition it shows a house called Lyndhurst BUT it might be that the name was changed, the first 4 letters
look to be scratched onto the nameplate, whilst the rest looks professionally carved.
The windows are stone mullions and it must be somewhere in the area
as it is a Hall & Siggers picture.....
It rings a bell BUT where is it ?

Welcome to Keighley History
The Church Green area of Keighley
The foreground has yet to be developed
Another lovely donated picture of the Keighley some of us remember
Percy Gill's van
Fabulous old picture sent to me from David
We would welcome any further information on this picture - do you remember Percy Gill?
Trevor and myself are both of the opinion it it is to the side of St Peter's Church on South Street. the only rounded building either of us can remember.
Any further information at all.
