Brackenhill and the Bullring
Brackenhill is the first street on the left as you enter the village from Hessle Common on Wakefield Road although it is often the name given to a larger area of the village.
If you travelled down and around the corner in this photo you would come to Seals buildings which were also known as the Bullring.

Behind this row, can just be seen the chimneys os Seals buildings (Known as the Bullring)
