About

Wetherby East & Thorp Arch sits in the northeastern part of the City of Leeds, centred on Wetherby town beside the River Wharfe. The town retains a market place and the stone bridge over the Wharfe that carries local traffic across the river. Residential streets meet local shops, schools and community facilities, with the A1(M) corridor and local road links providing connections toward Leeds and the A58 corridor. Distances to Leeds city centre are around twelve miles by road.

Thorp Arch lies just southeast of Wetherby and combines a small village core with a larger industrial and business area on the trading estate. The trading estate hosts distribution and light manufacturing units, and the site beside Walton Road includes the training ground used by Leeds United. Riverbank footpaths and short stretches of towpath provide walking routes along the Wharfe, and the layout of fields and hedgerows around the villages marks the transition from built-up Wetherby toward open countryside.
