Project partner - Hyde Park Picture House

The boundaries of the original Burley village been eroded and the area known as Burley is closely linked to the neighbouring communities of Hyde Park, Woodhouse, Kirkstall and Armley, all in easy walking distance.

Not far from Burley Primary School is the historic Hyde Park Picture House, which is still a popular working cinema. The Picture House is one of the project partners and we will be holding a public launch and premiere screening of the final oral history film there in early June. The  Burley Champions are already working with the project filmmaker Simon Collins to develop and 'storyboard' ideas for the film  and to research individual images to accompany the interviews. If you have an interest in historic Burley would like to come to the screening or to receive a free copy of the DVD at the end of the project, just contact the school.
