Previously unseen photos of Leeds zoo to go on show

    Never before seen photographs taken between the 1930s and 1950s of a Leeds park are to be put on show.

    Around 100 black and white snaps of Roundhay Park will go on display at an exhibition put together by Leeds University at the park itself on Saturday, 29 April.

    The photos were discovered in a scrapbook last year and include shots of the park’s zoo as well as people picnicking at the boating lake and enjoying a swim.
