About

Middleton Park ward lies in south Leeds, centred around the large, historic woodland of the same name. The area is primarily residential, featuring a mix of housing from interwar council estates to more recent private developments. Its eastern boundary is largely defined by the M621 motorway, which separates it from the city centre.

The ward's defining feature is Middleton Park itself, a significant remnant of the ancient woodland of South Leeds. The park includes recreational facilities, but its extensive wooded areas and the preserved Middleton Railway—the world's oldest continuously working railway—are central to its character. This industrial heritage site operates heritage steam trains through the park's eastern edge.
