From memorable folk in the city centre to buildings, pubs and clubs (from the good old days) that are no longer there, everyone who has grown up in Wakefield holds some special memories. Here are just a few shared by you!
13. Cattle Market
The Wakefield Cattle Market was opened in 1765 and was at one time, the largest in the north of England. The Royal Mail depot now stands in its place. (Wakefield Cultural Services at www.twixtaireandcalder.org.uk)

15. Fairground
Who remembers the fair at Heath Common?
16. Heppy's
