Editor’s Letter
Hello and welcome to this month’s Covered – the magazine for the Leeds suburbs. Most of us pass Leeds Town Hall fairly regularly but when is the last time you popped in and had a poke around? We visited this month for an access all areas look behind the scenes. There’s certainly more to the Town Hall than we thought. Have a look at this month’s Places of Interest feature and see for yourself. It’s some time since we last visited a vegetarian restaurant, the last time being our visit to the impressive Cheerful Chilli in Otley. We thought it was time we featured another so popped in to Roots & Fruits in Leeds’ Grand Arcade where we found a truly interesting menu and story behind the business. Long gone are the days when vegetarian and vegan places offered up nut-roast as their signature dish. See this month’s Food & Drink for more.
Also in this month’s edition, we thought it was about time Covered photographer Ivor Hughes got his skates on so we sent him along to check out Leeds Roller Dolls. Unfortunately he couldn’t be persuaded to join in but he did find a fantastic minority sport in the city, one that most won’t have been aware existed before now. If you’re like a little razzamatazz with your sport then it might be for you. Looking to the next edition; the deadline for editorial submissions and listings in our Really Useful Guide is 11/11/14 and the advertising deadline is 14/11/14. Until next month,

Food & Drink
ROOTS AND FRUITS Roots and Fruits is now practically an institution. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, and recently under new ownership, this vegetarian and vegan cafe first opened its doors in November 1989 to rapturous applause from non meat eaters previously deprived of a good place to eat out in Leeds centre. Twenty five years later and things have changed quite a bit in the city. Roots and Fruits though is still going strong and remains one of the the very few places to offer an exclusively meat free menu, rather than just a token number of dishes. That doesn’t mean to say that it only caters for vegetarians and vegans, of course. With a growing interest in food and sustainable living, people are
often keen to know the origin of their food, not to mention the cost to the environment. Added to this is the rise of the so called ‘gastrotourists’. According to recent research, more and more travellers are choosing their holiday destination based on the culinary experience available, with many keen to try out new flavours. And exciting new flavours is certainly something which Roots and Fruits
has to offer the discerning diner, right here in Leeds. Located in the smart and recently refurbished Grand Arcade, Roots and Fruits is popular with pretheatre diners and you can expect them to be bustling just before curtain call and also over lunch time. Offering diners a myriad of freshly cooked and delicious dishes, with the opportunity to bring your own alcohol for a small corkage fee, it’s easy to see the attraction in this quirky and friendly cafe. New owners Kay Jones and Richard Young took over around a year ago and are the third owners in the history of Roots and Fruits. Passionate about the cafe, and the ethos behind it, they have renovated to a fresh, contemporary style and vibrant caterpillar greens with sumptuous cerise pinks provide a fitting backdrop to the interesting mosaic tiled counter. Pleasant lighting highlights the work of local artists on the walls and many of the

original Grand Arcade features remain. The huge windows offer customers the opportunity to watch the world go by from this tranquil oasis, which is just a stone’s throw away from the main shops and offices, and the original numbered floor tiles are still present in the doorway too, which seems only appropriate in an area of Leeds now known for its vintage stores and craft shops. You can expect a warm and knowledgable welcome at Roots and Fruits. Kay and Richard and are keen to showcase fresh and imaginative dishes alongside tried and tested favourites and to show that vegetarian food can be enjoyable and accessible for everyone. A quick glance through the menu reveals a range of dependable dishes such as an all day breakfast, burritos and a hearty lasagne or moussaka which sit alongside more exotic dishes such as crisp julienne vegetable, lemongrass and noodle salad, served with a Cambodian wedding day dip, or homemade chickpea and broad bean falafel. There is also a selection of lighter meals on offer such as goat’s cheese fritters with an onion marmalade, haloumi salad with puy lentils or Welsh rarebit, which may leave room for one of the fabulous desserts such as

pomegranate rice pudding, chocolate cheesecake or churros. The kitchen staff are just as enthusiastic about their work and you can expect to see an ever changing specials board featuring seasonal offerings such as blood orange, mozzarella and braised radichio salad or mushroom and redcurrant wellington. The chefs Lizzie, Luke and Loui work their magic on the range of fresh produce, which is organic and sourced from Thornes Park in Wakefield, and it’s a delight to see them crafting seasonal vegetables into

such creative culinary delicacies. All of the burgers and soups are hand-made and vary according to whatever seasonal produce is available and you can expect such tasty options such as a marrow, fennel and rosemary soup, served with a bread bun freshly baked each day on the premises. Fresh sandwiches are also an option and include time honoured classics such as egg mayo sitting alongside a tempting artichoke and chickpea salad. Cheese roulade, spicy curries and dhal add to the range of dishes from around the world and are popular favourites on the menu too, offering a warming choice as the cold nights draw ever closer. Roots and Fruits is the only restaurant in Leeds to be approved by the Vegetarian Society, which
means that not only do they reach a very high standard and are cruelty and meat free, but all eggs are free-range and all dishes GM free, proving that conscientious and ethical dining can be achieved at an affordable price. Whilst the dishes here are very reasonably priced, there is no scrimping on quality and all produce and suppliers have been very carefully hand selected. All coffee is Fairtrade, as is much of the tea selection and hot chocolate, and the range of freshly made smoothies are vegan and gluten free. There is also a selection of cold drinks and juices available and you will find a range of handcrafted chocolate by Sweet Revolution, made in Wetherby, and cakes baked freshly by local favourites, That Old Chestnut.
At Roots and Fruits, they are happy to cater for differing tastes and many dishes can be adjusted to be suitable for vegans and gluten free diners are encouraged to enquire about dishes. The cafe is also available for private parties and has disabled access, though it should be noted that the toilet is upstairs. Much of the food is available to take away and orders can be rung through in advance and they are open from 11 am until 7 pm, Monday to Saturday. Roots and Fruits have very kindly offered Covered magazine readers a 10% discount from their bill. Just mention ‘Covered’ when you pay to receive your discount. www.rootsandfruits.net 10-11 Grand Arcade Leeds Tel: 0113 2428313

10 News from the Suburbs
Leeds Roller Dolls If you’ve seen the film Rollerball, either the 1975 original or 2002 remake, then you’ll have a good idea of the aims behind the rapidly growing sport of roller derby. OK, the circuits aren’t banked, there is no ball to get into any goal and nobody is riding or being pulled by a motorcycle. But the vigour, attitude and razzamatazz are just the same. Two teams of five, drawn and rotated from squads of up to fourteen in any one match, compete on a circuit roughly the size of a tennis court. Always travelling anti-clockwise, the aims of each team are twofold and identical; assist your own nominated player (the “jammer”) to lap the opposition as often as possible – while blocking your opponents’ jammer from doing exactly the same. The matches are played over two periods of 30 minutes, each half being broken down into shorter periods of up to two minutes. The rules governing what blocking or charging manoeuvres are or aren’t permissible remain a mystery to the newbie spectator – but referees are

there to enforce rules dedicated to player safety. Though that’s not to say that there aren’t several heavily protected spills during each play. Eighty years ago in USA the sport was fully professional and attracted up to five million spectators. The modern revival is around ten years old with the game being predominantly all-female, amateur and administered by volunteers. The showbiz and glamour elements that allegedly ruined the game in USA have been reintroduced

– glitzy kit, loud music, running commentaries and all players known by nicknames drawn from their own, or their characteristics or style of play. On the match day we attended, the Leeds line-up included Meg Argh Bite and Rigor Morris ... On the day, at Leeds Footsal Stadium on 20 September, six teams from the north (Sheffield, Hull, Halifax, Furness, Newcastle and Leeds) were competing in the fifth annual Great Yorkshire Showdown. Multiple matches (here a warm-up “A” match, six league matches and then a final) are more popular than single ones due to the cost of venue and travel. The result? Whippin Hinnies (Newcastle) beat Furness Firecrackers 173 points to 172 – a remarkably close and high scoring final. Leeds Roller Dolls’ home fixtures close just as this issue commences distribution. So you’ll have to visit leedsrollerdolls.co.uk and related social media to get the latest news, results and league positions. There is also a wealth of information for wannabe rollers (league, recreational or junior) and a plea for volunteers in organisational and support roles.

12 Places of Interest
LEEDS TOWN HALL Mention Leeds Town Hall and most would think of the iconic clock tower, or the four white stone lions which guard the entrance to this majestic building. Yet there is much more to discover about this landmark in the midst of our busy metropolis. This Grade I Listed building was built from millstone grit during the population boom of the 19th century. Leeds was then a dirty town, with coal driven steam engines and many unsanitary conditions. The now beautiful Victoria Quarter was then an open air slaughter house, with the blood carried down Briggate (‘road to the bridge’) and into the river. Also on Briggate was the Moot Hall which was used as the city’s courthouse, but the swift rise in population meant that this became inadequate. A tender was launched to design a new municipal ‘palace’ which would give the Victorian
working classes something to aspire to and show Leeds as the successful city it had fast become. The contract was won by little known architect, Cuthbert Brodrick, who later designed other buildings such as the Corn Exchange, Mechanics Institute and the Turkish Baths which sat on Cookridge Road, before he became obscure. Interestingly, the clock tower was not part of Brodrick’s original design and was added after civic leaders requested a grander architectural building. Leeds Town Hall was then used as a model for many buildings across the British Empire.
An estimated 20,000 people lined the streets to see Queen Victoria open the town hall in 1858. Her statue remains in the vestibule to this day and the grand central hall was spontaneously named Victoria Hall in her honour during the opening ceremony. In May

1942, 25,000 people turned up to hear Winston Churchill give a speech on the steps of Leeds town hall and, nowadays, the building plays host to wedding ceremonies, conferences and council departments, including PEPU (Peace Emergency
Planning Unit). The opulent Victoria Hall remains a venue for many performances and its concert organ is the largest three manual example in Europe. It contains 6600 pipes and is one of the few organs capable of playing a lower A note and lunchtime
recitals are largely given by Dr Simon Lindley who has been Leeds Civic Organist for almost 30 years. Tours are now available and as well as visiting the grand Victoria Hall include the courtroom, which was functioning up until 1991 and has featured in TV programmes such as Emmerdale and The New Statesman. From here you can visit the original prison cells in which 81 unfortunate Victorians were held before being transported to Armley Jail to be hung. Somewhat worryingly, when exhuming the bodies at the jail, an extra corpse was discovered and remains unidentified. Next it’s up the 203 spiral steps to the clock tower which, at 225 feet, was the tallest building in Leeds until 1966 and still houses the original William Potts of Pudsey timepiece, as well as offering some of the most magnificent views across the city.

WIVES LISTEN CAREFULLY BUT HUSBANDS BEWARE ‘A Beginners’ Guide to Murdering your Husband’ is the title of Garforth Amateur Dramatic Society’s November production. The comedy play, written by David Muncaster, is presented as an instructional video that is being filmed. The presenter Maddy (Lynda McCraight), aided by Jim (Martyn Drake) her real life husband, and her faithful employees Erica Nicholls as Kerry, Anne Rhodes as Julie and Mike Osborne as John, re-enact a variety of methods for disposing of an unwanted husband. But is she really trying to get rid of her husband? Is the video just a ruse to lull him into a false sense of security? The parallels with their real life relationship give Jim plenty to worry about, but as the play reaches its its climax, we realise that nothing is what it seems. The play will be performed at Garforth Miners Welfare Hall from Wednesday 19th November to
Cast: Back row: Mike Osborne, Geoff Haywood (director), Martyn Drake. Front row: Anne Rhodes, Lynda McCraight, Erica Nicholls.

NEWS FROM LPS The Leeds Photographic Society's winter season is now well under way. The first in house competition of the season was tightly fought with Ted Cements taking first place the Monochrome section which was themed 'Transport' and Tony Biscombe winning the colour 'open' section. Another recent attraction was a visit by London based street photographer Dave Mason, who enthralled the audience with his very interesting and amusing talk entitled 'I Shoot People'. Events for November include the Society's annual dinner, which will also feature the judging of the Robinson and Awmack Trophy competitions, as well as a talk by the society's own Vice President Ian Wray, who will be describing his photographic project to re-trace his great great uncle's journey through the WW1 battlefields of France.
Winner in the LPS in-house competition (Monochrome Section): Off to work – Assam style by Ted Clements
The society meets most Tuesdays at 7.30 pm. in St Edmund's Church Hall, Lidgett Park Road, Roundhay, Leeds LS8 1JN and new members of all levels of photographic ability are always welcome.
Please note, there will be no meeting on 11th November as this is the date of the annual dinner. Further information can be found at www.lps1852.co.uk

History in the Making at Barwick All Saints’ Church Barwick All Saints’ was one of the historical buildings which opened its doors to the public over the heritage weekend of 13-14 September. Parishioners acted as guides and conducted rolling tours, highlighting the most significant features of the AngloSaxon church (with significant Norman and later extensions). When Covered arrived, a volunteer guide was explaining the history and significance of three of the church’s oldest features. The two Saxon stones are testament to its Anglo-Saxon origins. The smaller stone (left) is believed to date from the eighth century and was part of the upright of a cross. The interwoven patterns suggest even earlier links to Celtic decoration. The larger stone is also believed to be part of the upright of a cross. The decoration on the larger stone is a figure with his hands on two smaller. Is the scene anecdotal, biblical or, even, Scandinavian legend? These stones were recovered from the church walls in 1900. The third is the church’s ancient altar stone, recently rediscovered and presently tucked away in the same corner. During the Reformation, under Henry VIII, it was commonplace for a church’s most important features to be removed or destroyed. This altar had been removed and incorporated into the floor of the church – placing it underfoot was considered a great insult to the Catholic faith originally responsible for its existence. Only
recently did someone notice that the badly worn slab of stone still showed three of the five crosses traditionally carved into each altar stone – one on each corner and one in the centre. It is either late Anglo-Saxon or early Norman. Discussion on how to restore this important piece of history into everyday use is currently impeded by other budgetary priorities, notably the church roof and perimeter wall. The stone statue of The Virgin Mary, presently located in the vestry, is believed to be further evidence of state sponsored vandalism during the Reformation. During the nineteenth century, the statue was found buried in the garden of one of the cottages then standing in the church grounds. It is likely that it was hidden there for safe keeping at the time.
WWI commemorations continue Among their numerous community activities, and following their special WWI centennial commemorative service on Sunday 3 August, All Saints’ is holding a special Armistice Day service on Wednesday 11 November. They also hope to repeat their August weekend display of villagers’ WWI artefacts and memorabilia.
These Anglo-Saxon stones, discovered in 1900, confirm All Saints’ earliest origins.
All Saints’ Church, Barwick in Elmet
Central to that display will be the Union Flag which currently hangs in the church (pictured). Donated by the local Royal British Legion, it once flew over Thiepval Memorial in Somme, France. That memorial bears the names of over 72,000 British and South African servicemen killed in the (two) Battles of the Somme and who have no known grave. They would like to hear from any villagers who have family or community related WWI artefacts or memorabilia available for loan during their November exhibition.

28 Blast from the Past
What Price Valour? What price valour? This 1914 (Mons) Star group of three medals was awarded posthumously in respect of 7629 Sergeant James Arthur Battle of School Lane, Chapel Allerton. Serving with The Yorkshire Regiment, Sgt Bartle was killed in action in Belgium on 22 October 1914. The medals, plaque, frame and four related regimental photographs sold for £450 at Hartleys Auctioneers (Ilkley) in October.
Chapel Allerton paid a price during WWI. Recent issues of Covered have included details of the two Maxwell brothers of Stainbeck Road, killed within months of each other shortly after the outbreak. More recently, the October medals section of Hartleys Auctioneers in Ilkley included the WWI medals and death plaque awarded posthumously in respect of Sergeant James Bartle of School Lane, Chapel Allerton. Sergeant Bartle was killed in action in October 1914 during the First Battle of Ypres (there were four). His body was never identified and his name is among others from The Yorkshire Regiment inscribed on Ypres’ Menin Gate. But what price valour? The three standard WWI medals and death plaque issued in the name of Sergeant Bartle are pictured. The 1914 Star (named on the reverse) was awarded to the earliest arrivals (a 1914-15 version was awarded to those arriving later). The silver British War Medal and golden Allied Victory
Medal (both named on the rim) were also issued to most servicemen, with minor variations. All casualties, whether military or civilian, prompted the award of a bronze Death Plaque (name showing). There are several factors that made Sergeant Bartle’s medals worth more than most – apart from the fact that he was KIA in Ypres. First, as an early arrival, his 1914 Star is worth significantly more than the 1914-15. The very earliest arrivals were also awarded a small clasp to display on the ribbon, making them rarer still – though Sergeant Bartle’s is missing now. Secondly, only one James Arthur Bartle served in WWI. So there is no room for ambiguity or mistaken identity. Thirdly, he was a senior NCO. The higher the rank, the rarer the medals. And, finally, he was serving in a front line regiment - rather than in a support unit many miles away. These medals (albeit without the clasp), Death Plaque,
some paperwork, four related regimental photographs and an ornamental memorial bought by the family to display the plaque sold for £450 (including premium). Quite a high price, in comparison with others similar. The only other groups of standard medals generally selling for more are those awarded to non-English units (Wales, Scotland, Ireland and white Commonwealth) and casualties on the first days of infamous engagements such as The First Battle of The Somme or Gallipoli. If awarded to a “Pals” battalion, then the vendor can all but name their own price. Royal Flying Corps/RAF also sell very strongly, though not Royal Navy. It’s just the way things are. The fact that all that remains of Sergeant James Arthur Bartle, 1 Bn Yorkshire Regiment, sold for but £450 on 1 October is not a reflection of the low value placed on his sacrifice during The Great War. It is because he is one among a million others.

Time to collect leaves for composting
to reinvigorate them. If you have any spare garlic cloves, plant them now. If not for eating, then for making your own garlic wash. Sweet peas and early varieties of broad beans may be sown under cover, then picked out and grown on in a cold frame. This is the month of cutting and cleaning, collecting sacks of fallen leaves for composting, and enjoying the beautiful colours of autumn. Cut back large rose bushes by half, to eliminate wind rock – then pick up all the old fallen leaves, and remove any leaves on the plant with black spot or rust and remove them completely from the garden.
Tulips and hyacinths may be planted now, consider planting two or three layers of bulbs in deep pots for a spectacular display. Do not forget to bring your tender plants inside this month, alternatively, give them a deep mulch to protect them over winter.

Stocking Up The RSPB is often asked for help in identifying an “unusual” bird – people will mention a stripy head, blue wings, black moustache or white rump. This mysterious creature usually turns out to be a jay. Normally shy birds that keep to the tree canopy, in autumn jays become more visible as they hunt out acorns around our streets and gardens. As a bird, the jay has everything – it is beautiful, intelligent, resourceful and full of character. Their activity at this time of year has an important purpose, as most of the acorns they collect are buried to provide a “larder” in times of food scarcity. Each individual can collect and store around 5,000 acorns, and, amazingly, they can remember up to 75% of these hiding places when they need to retrieve the food. Jays go to some considerable trouble to avoid being seen when they are hiding food, and even dig it up and re-bury it if they think they have been watched.
wood pile which will attract beetles and other insects, and provide a safe place for larger creatures such as hedgehogs? Check out the RSPB website for more ideas at http://www.rspb.org. uk/makeahomeforwildlife/advice/ gardening/
Any questions, ideas, suggestions or observations about local birds and wildlife, garden or otherwise are welcome and will be included in future articles. Please email: info@ covered-magazine.net or write to Covered at the usual address. Other birds can also be seen “caching”, as it’s called – coal tits dash back and forth from feeders, and nuthatches wedge seeds under tree bark. As the days get shorter, the struggle for survival becomes more intense for all our wildlife, so anything you can do to make a home for nature will be even more important. Why not make a dead
