Rowntree Wharf from Hungate

This phase awaiting development in the Hungate redevelopment area has been nicely landscaped with flowers and large photographs on the hoardings. The viewpoint is from the corner of Black Horse Lane and Palmer Lane behind the Ambulance Station and Black Swan Inn. Amongst the photographs on the hoardings are some balack and white shots of Leetham's Flour Mill which occupied part of the Hungate area and was one of the largest flour mills in the country. The Hungate area has yielded some interesting Archaeology dating back to Roman times. Hungate was once an area of high housing density a situation that looks to be repeated with the current developments on the site!
