Summary

Description
English: Detail of J. M. W. Turner's 1816 painting Leeds, showing Holbeck. Viewed looking northwards from Beeston Hill, the white tower belongs to St Paul's Church (demolished 1905) on the far side of the River Aire. Below the tower stands Marshall's Mill in Holbeck, and to its right, the chimney emitting black smoke, is Fenton and Murray’s foundry. Below the foundry, with a black chimney, stands Holbeck Moor Mill. The two-storey building below and to the right of the mill is Holbeck Workhouse.
