Jeffrey Shaw   83 #2 Posted January 13, 2021 I don't think that there seems to be one- but there are some for particular interest groups; maybe the Council there or its local newspaper might know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Janus   28 #5 Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) What happened to the Leeds forum, did it close down? That may have been about the nearest. Edited January 13, 2021 by Janus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Mister M Â Â 1,575 #8 Posted January 13, 2021 There was a Huddersfield Forum (though it must be 10 years since I visited it). It was very much geared to pictures to the old days in Huddersfield & surrounding districts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Facebook, Amazon etc have basically turned the internet into a handful of sites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
