About Leeds - show infohide info
Leeds is a city in the county of West Yorkshire, in the north of England. It is the main settlement in the City of Leeds, and the River Aire runs through the town. Incorporated in 1626, it is a major commercial, transportation, communications, and industrial centre. The city was originally an agricultural market town in the Middle Ages, and received its first charter in 1207. In the Tudor period Leeds was mainly a merchant town (woollen cloth) trading with Europe via the Humber estuary. At one point nearly half of England's total export passed through Leeds. The city's industrial growth was catalysed by the introduction of the Leeds and Liverpool canal in 1816 and the railway in 1848.
