Parklands is a neighbourhood in Leeds, West Yorkshire. It sits to the north-east of the city centre, within the broader network of residential communities that make up outer Leeds. The area is characterised by housing streets typical of post-war suburban development, and neighbours other populated places that together form the wider urban fabric of the city.
Getting Around
Parklands is accessible by road from the main routes that connect central Leeds to its northern and eastern suburbs. As with much of outer Leeds, local bus services provide the principal public transport links into the city centre and surrounding districts.
Local Character
The neighbourhood is primarily residential in character, with streets of houses that give it a settled, community feel. Visitors passing through or residents exploring on foot will find it a quiet part of Leeds, away from the busier commercial areas closer to the centre. Its position within the city makes it a straightforward starting point for reaching other parts of Leeds.
