The print showcases a row of old houses nestled on the west side of the bustling Market Place. With its delicate lines and intricate details, this artwork offers a glimpse into the architectural beauty of yesteryears. The houses depicted in this drawing feature a unique characteristic - a continuous shelter extending along their frontage. This distinctive element adds an enchanting touch to the scene, evoking feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about their purpose. Above this shelter, two dormer windows peek out from the rooftops, adding further charm to these historic dwellings. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of Leek's rich history and its significance as a market town.
