Taken at Carnival time probably in the early 1950s. The image shows Croft Gardens and behind St Hilda's Church. Also in the photo is Sir Cuthbert Sharp's House to the left of the church and this was soon to be demolished.
Also behind that, the large building is St Hilda's Hall in Durham St, also now demolished.
