Welcome to our page of bed and breakfast in Leeds!
Leeds prosperity was built on the wool trade and later
the textile industry; today it is a vibrant, rapidly changing
city. Leeds became the post-Industrial Revolution centre of the
Yorkshire cloth trade and is arguably the birthplace of ready
made clothing and the chain store. In 1883 pioneering local man,
Joseph Hepworth, established the first ever chain of tailoring
stores and just one year later Michael Marks, of Marks &
Spencer fame, opened his first stall at Leeds Kirkstall
Markets. There are two main areas in Leeds
that have been transformed by the redevelopment projects of the
last decade; the Victorian Quarter, home to Harvey Nichols, Vivienne
Westwood, Space NK and Jo Malone and the canal waterfront, which
now boasts a de luxe 5 star hotel, 42 the Calls, and the Royal
Armouries Museum. |
