In the 1960s and 1970s the suburb of Woodhouse, along with many similar areas in Leeds, was undergoing a sweeping transformation. These photos illustrate that transformation, from groups of back-to-back terraces to late twentieth-century houses of differing types amid green spaces. All the photographs were taken at the time by a student, who is one of the authors of the book. At their heart are not just houses and shops but the people who lived or worked in them. The people bring the old images to life, and the affect of the changes on their lives are part of the story which the pictures record
