The corner of Vicar Lane and New Briggate is to all intents and purposes, directly over the A64(M) - New York Road, the A64 that it joins, is still the York Road but it is doubtfull if it follows the same route as it did in 1861.
If it is the same Greyhound in 1861 as in 1912 then the low number signifies proximity to Leeds center.
The 1881 census on Ancestry should provide an easy way to check adjoining properties.
Further along on the same Leodis site (search for Greyhound) there is a Greyhound next door to an Horse and Jockey but the site is near to Wetherby.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the info. The Greyhound I'm trying to find more info about was next to another pub called the Horse and Jockey. Also, the address of the informant on the death cert (1864) is Cottage Street, which, I've just found out today, was just past All Saints Church in the Richmond Hill area of York Road. I think it's fair to assume that Cottage Street was probably near the pub itself. Also, looking at the Leodis site again, it seems that there used to be street names beginning with 'Greyhound' in this area of York Road. Again, circumstantial evidence so I'm still not 100% sure.
