Adel Church, Leeds is the subject of this lovely postcard, sent to Elsie by her friend M. Keys. The thought is that Elsie and her family would know this church well, as she was from Leeds, and this may have even been their home parish.
Happily, Adel Church still exists, and looks pretty much as it has since the time of Normans. The church even has a tech-savvy website, where you can find out more information.

If you're wondering about the absence of postage, it seems that many of these cards were mailed in envelopes, perhaps more than one at a time. Sadly, I do not have the envelopes, but the postcards remain.
