Quarry Hill Flats, Leeds: A Bird's Eye View into the Past This aerial photograph, taken on the 2nd of June 1939, offers a unique perspective of Quarry Hill Flats in Leeds, West Yorkshire, as it once stood before the passage of time. The image is part of the extensive Aerofilms Collection held by Historic England. Quarry Hill Flats, an iconic example of interwar social housing, was designed by architects Ove Arup and Thomas Shelley with the aim of providing affordable housing for the working class community. The estate was built between 1935 and 1938, and its modernist design was considered revolutionary at the time. In this photograph, we see the meticulously planned layout of the estate, with its neat rows of buildings arranged in a grid-like pattern. The green spaces, communal gardens, and play areas are clearly visible, demonstrating the architects' commitment to creating a liveable and attractive environment for residents. The photograph also reveals the intricate details of the buildings' construction. The use of reinforced concrete, brick, and terracotta tiles is evident, showcasing the high-quality materials and craftsmanship that went into the project. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the architectural vision and innovation that shaped the urban landscape of Leeds during the interwar period. The Quarry Hill Flats remain a significant part of the city's history and a testament to the importance of affordable housing in creating vibrant and thriving communities.
