Loiner is a demonym , describing the citizens of Leeds . History While there are several theories, the actual origin of the term remains uncertain. The three competing theories are Loiner could derive from the name Loidis in use by the eighth century for the district around modern day Leeds . Another explanation says that in the 19th century there were many yards and closes around Briggate whose back entrances were known as Low Ins or Loins, hence Loiner. Yet a third theory is that there were a number of lanes in the Briggate area pronounced loins in the local accent. People who gathered in these loins to gossip were therefore called Loiners. ref name BBC2005 http www.bbc.co.uk leeds content articles 2005 01 06 voices2005 loiner feature.shtml BBC Leeds voices2005 Loiners of the world unite ref Usage The mock classical adjectives Leodensian and Leodiensian are sometimes used by some local sports clubs, and the word Leodensian also features in the lyrics of I Predict a Riot by Kaiser Chiefs , although in that context it was referring to John Smeaton , a famous 18th century resident of the city who resided in Austhorpe Lodge on the site of Austhorpe Primary School as a founder of Leeds Grammar School, as a Leeds Grammar School leaver is called an Old Leodensian. ref Leeds People from Leeds ref The term is commonly used to refer to fans of Leeds Rhinos as well as the club itself, either as The Loiners or Loiners.

Clifton had been a director of Twining Models, having started working for Twining as a school leaver before Twining Models was first established. Throughout its forty seven year history, Twining Models established a reputation as one of the foremost British model makers. It specialised in architectural, industrial, and transport models. Before WW2 it made a number of models for the Queen Mary s Dolls House , designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and now at Windsor Castle , stained glass work on which Twining was an expert and astronomical telescopes. After WW2 the firm made a number of planning models used in the re development of bomb damaged cities, also various kinds of power stations and industrial developments.
