The Rock was good until a couple of years ago, when they changed landlord. It's always been that way in my experience, varying from good to bad every couple of years. At the minute, I'm of the view there's no decent pubs in Morley.
dangerous on a bike was New Bank Street. I was on Croft House Rise. knew a few folk on NBS. Yeah the rock has gone down hill, ashamed to say i know too many of them that make it that way. The Royal used to be good but thats now Last orders and its rubbish. Only bar in recent times ive thought is any cop is the bar at the hotal gym thing up the top end of town towards tingley. not expensive and a decent pint. apart from that i avoid morley like the plague. Needless isnt too bad, but thats on the morley/batley divide

A bit cliquey in there (golf club set) though it did shut down and re-open and I haven't been in since it did. Food used to be good value.

The Faversham was interesting because a theology student called Ursula always got her baps out after 9pm. She was one of those fast an loose young ladies that I never had a chance with, mainly because those types were all being "graded" by their lecturers (as was Ursula).
the fav circa late 80's early 90's was a really nice eclectic mix.

I grew up on the estate behind it (Well, got bigger. I've never really grown up).
For a while in the late 80's early 90's my sister was a barmaid there. It was a cracking little boozer. New Years 1989/90 in there was one of the funnest times I've ever spent.
Sadly, in the mid 90's the Queens rugby team started frequenting it. It became dangerous for anyone but locals (and dodgy locals at that) to venture past it's doors. Within a few years, the police had had enough and refused to give them a licence. It's now been converted into student flats.
Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos.

I might be wrong (again) but your time scales seem a bit out ????
I thought the Little Park went years before that. ??????
