Captain Geoffrey Gaskell Blackburn Bank House now Bartlett Insurance Building.
The Blackburns where a family of accountants who lived at Bank House on the Broadway Leeds Ring Road through Horsforth. Originaly built by the Stables family and extended to accomodate the large family of Blackburns who added the extension to the left. Some will remember it as Broadway Hall used for dances and celabrations. On the 1881 census it is refenced as being on the site of Toulsons Yard does anyone have any information of Toulsons in Horsforth?
