Once known as Allerton House, the former office block was used as Yorkshire Bank’s processing centre and has been derelict for over a decade. It includes a two-storey security vault in its basement, which is accessed via steel doors. http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/building-work-on-aldi-store-in-leeds-suburb-will-start-next-summer-1-8248484
