Yes it is Leo, I know first hand because I worked on that Landmark Leeds job when I was still doing joinery, we had to shutter the old cellars up with concrete reinforcement when they accidentally broke through. We had to work in a few shops cellars too, the Sock shop, the record shop that was there (was it Jumbo?) The library were just a few. Those hidden cellars caused a lot of extra work and help up the job considerably. I could kick myself now because I wasn't into photography or anything like I do today. In those days I was too busy watching the girls go by, oh and a little bit of work

That made me Phill. We probably all had other things on our mind than carrying a camera around to take photos when younger.
