About

Holbeck sits immediately south of Leeds city centre, positioned between the River Aire and the main railway lines. Historically an industrial heartland, the area is characterised by converted Victorian mills and warehouses alongside modern commercial developments. It functions as a significant business and legal district, housing numerous company headquarters and offices within both old and new buildings. The layout is a mix of wide thoroughfares and narrower, older streets.

The area contains the Holbeck Viaduct, a substantial Victorian structure that now supports a unique urban park elevated above street level. Remnants of its industrial past are evident in the remaining factories and the Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills is located nearby. Residential pockets consist primarily of terraced housing, with the community focused around local pubs and several green spaces like Holbeck Moor.
