Wakefield Street Walkers

[thekingreturns]

I know there isn't now but has there ever been... growing up I used to hear stories about "Argos Corner" where all the WG's used to hang out waiting for their next punter but since found out it was just a joke because that's where women used to wait for their friends to show up for a night out... So it got me thinking has Wakefield ever had an area where Street Girls were etc.

Cheers

Going back to the mid/late 80s there was a sauna massage place just off church street, I visited this on many occasions, I cannot remember much about this other than I used this as a quick fix place (come cum & go), on two occasions I recognised one of the girls from there standing on the corner of Thornes lane and mark street, I had also seen different girls stood there on other visits, I later heard a rumour that this was a local pick up point and im sure I recall something in the wakey express regarding this being shut down by the local plod

Cheers WL.... I always thought Mark Street and surrounding streets would make a good spot for Street Girls as on a night its empty apart from loads of learner drivers

I've never known of, or heard about, street walkers in Wakey centre. As a kid (1970's) I vaguely recall hearing Belle Vue area mentioned as a possible pick up area but certainly not today. I also heard of a massage place at Thornes Industrial area but never went and probably no longer exists.

There are some railway arches near Batley on the road down from Shaw Cross and every time I drive past I think what a good pick up place it could be.

Wakey seems like a punting desert.

I suppose with the tolerated zone in Holbeck not being too far away why would they risk it

The place on Church Street was called ‘A Kind of Magic’ & was definitely still there mid 90’s, not sure when it closed but don’t think it was much after that

There used to be a few hang around up by Wildcats , probably trying to get you on way out of lap dancing. This is only 2/3 yrs ago.

ah Wildcats... once had a black lass in there give me a hand job and let me finger her.... made me swear never to tell anyone or her borthers would come get me.... shit

The train station was the red light place in Wakey. It was never prolific only ever one or two. I found out by chance and took full advantage

Late 80s- very early 90-s there were still a few,  seem to recall on an industrial estate close to one of the train stations.

Police put a stop to it all.

Have known the odd independent there,  but usually not for long.
