  2. Wharfe Street My Great Grandparents and grandmother Elizabeth Ann Morris lived in 1 Wharfe street about 1920. Great grandad was called Wilson Morris, he was a rolleyman possibly at the nearby foundry. My grandmother then married Joseph Bernard Metcalf from 6 Wood Street which I think was near the now derelict Holy Trinity Church. If any one can remember them I would be interested to know.
