About

Alwoodley sits to the north of Leeds city centre in the LS17 postcode. It is primarily a residential suburb with a mix of housing types and local facilities: primary and secondary schools, places of worship, small shopping parades and community halls. The area forms the Alwoodley ward of Leeds City Council and includes Moor Allerton in its southern part. Pockets of parkland, allotments and playing fields are interwoven with housing, and a network of footpaths provides direct links to the northern green belt that frames the suburb.

Sport and everyday services are concentrated around a handful of organised sites: Alwoodley Golf Club occupies a large course close to the green belt and several public rights of way run alongside its fairways; Moor Allerton shopping centre supplies supermarkets, independents and health services for local residents. Frequent bus services connect Alwoodley to Leeds city centre and neighbouring suburbs. Street layouts and tree-lined verges reflect gradual suburban development through the 20th century, and local groups maintain small conservation spaces and sports pitches.
