Title
Leeds 'Dark Arches' - DNT00141
Description
The 'under belly' of Leeds Station in 2006. Many users of Leeds Station are unaware that it sits atop a massive Victorian complex of vaults and arches spanning the River Aire, the so called ‘Dark Arches’, reputedly comprising 18 million bricks. Originally the arches became used as workshops and warehouses and, until comparatively recently, comprised one of the least salubrious parts of Leeds. Today as part of the Granary Wharf development many are used for car parking but there are also shops and restaurants.
