  • The Park Owners Walk Notes and Map
    HISTORIC OWNERS OF MIDDLETON PARK Middleton Park is a large green open space of over 500 acres. The woodland is the second largest semi-natural ancient woodland in West Yorkshire. The park was part of the manor of Middleton, which has been owned by the Gramaire family (1166-1300), the Creppings, the Leghes (1330-1706), the Brandlings (1706-1865) and the Tetleys (1865-1920). Further information can be found on the History section of the Friends© website. Lake (1) ± The lake is artificial and part of the historic parkland. It was probably originally a smaller winter fish pond for the medieval owners. The walk goes round the lake and into the woods, past the top of the clearings, and down the North facing slope to the old tram track. Ice House (2) ± In 2006, Robin Silverwood recalled the name ªIce Hillº for a north facing slope. The Archaeologist, Martin Roe, guessed that would be where the Lodge©s Ice House would be. Paul Hebden searched and found a few old bricks showing through the soil. Excavations by South Leeds Archaeology in May 2013, and Leeds YAC in July 2017, confirmed that this was indeed an Ice House. There will be a further excavation in June 2019 by Leeds YAC. The Ice House would have been built in the 1760©s when Middleton Lodge was built. Medieval Boundary Ditch (3) ± In 1200, in the reign of King John, William de Gramary of Middleton and John de Beeston had a long running dispute over who owned parts of Beeston Wood. William locked up Adam©s Forester in his stocks, and later, Williiam and his men robbed Adam of a cape, sword, cap and gold ring, and locked him up in the stocks too! In court William denied everything and eventually a Judicial Duel was ordered for the last day of Easter, 1201.

  • A Lunchtime Stroll in Leeds City Centre
    2 kilometres / 30 minutes to 1 hour. Accessibility – All this route is on pavements and avoids steps. A lunchtime stroll in Leeds City Centre There are numerous bridges and river crossings in Leeds. However, there is only one referred to affectionately as “Leeds Bridge”. This is where our walk starts. There has been some form of crossing here since the middle ages. The bridge you see today was built out of cast iron in the early 1870's. In 1888 the bridge was witness to a world first. The “Father of Cinematography”, Louis Le Prince, shot what is considered to be the world’s earliest moving pictures from the bridge. © It's No Game (cc-by-sa/2.0) Walk across Leeds Bridge and take a right along Dock Street. Dock Street began its life as a commercial entity in the 1800's. Then, during the Industrial Revolution, the canal network provided the catalyst for the city's growth. As its name suggests, boats used to dock along Dock Street. A deep dock allowed the loading and unloading of barges into warehouses. Today Dock Street still looks familiar, but the warehouses have become housing and business spaces. Converted and conserved in the 1980's. Continuing along Dock Street you will pass Centenary Bridge. This bridge was built in 1993 to celebrate 100 years since Leeds was granted city status. It also created better pedestrian access across the Aire. Dock Street c. 1930 By kind permission of Leeds Libraries, www.leodis.net Continue along Dock Street and you will come to Brewery Wharf.

  • Leeds' Newcomers in 2019
    Leeds’ newcomers in 2019 A short statistics overview for people who plan or deliver services, and are planning for migrants who are the newest arrivals to Leeds. Photo credits: Steve Morgan [photographer] and Yorkshire Futures [source]. 1. Introduction Who is this briefing paper for? This document is aimed at people who plan or deliver local services in Leeds. You might find you are often the first people who meet and respond to newcomers in the local area. You will know that people who have just arrived in an area often need more information and support than those who have had time to adjust and learn about life in the UK. These newcomers might benefit from information about key services for example, in their first language. This briefing paper provides an overview of the numbers and geographical patterns of new migrants who recently have come to live in Leeds and were issued with a national insurance number [NINO] in 2019. We hope you will find the information presented here useful for planning services and engagement with new communities, making funding applications, or for background research for you or your colleagues to better understand migration in your area. Where has the data come from? This briefing paper was produced by Migration Yorkshire in September 2020. This document uses information from the Department for Work and Pensions [DWP] about non-British nationals who successfully applied for a NINO in 2019. We have used this as a proxy for newcomers, because new arrivals usually need to apply for a NINO in order to work or claim benefits.

In recent years, there has been a large amount of housing clearance and widespread new development on land surrounding the original estates. The area is a great place to live, but we want to take that extra step and make it an even better place with good facilities and jobs in accessible locations, and a range of housing options. This Neighbourhood Framework has been prepared to set out the investment opportunities to help do this, building on the good work already done and complementing the strong local partnership working to improve all aspects of the area. It sets out where new houses could be built, improvements and changes to open space, and the potential for better local facilities. There has been a great deal of discussion with residents about the ideas included in this plan and we would like to thank everyone for their time.
