About

Tinshill sits in the far northwest of Leeds, primarily a residential suburb bordered by Cookridge to the south and the outer edges of Horsforth to the north. The area is characterised by post-war housing, with many semi-detached and detached homes lining its quiet, leafy streets. It offers a practical, family-oriented environment with several local convenience stores and takeaways catering to daily needs. The layout is defined by its position on a gentle hill, providing views over the surrounding greenery.

A central feature is the large Tinshill Recreation Ground, a grassy expanse with sports pitches and a children's play area that serves as a community focal point. The area is well-connected by the nearby A660 Otley Road, a major route into Leeds city centre. Local schooling is provided by Tinshill Primary School, situated at the heart of the neighbourhood. The surrounding woodland pockets, like those near Cookridge, offer accessible walking routes for residents.
