Upper Moor Side is a neighbourhood in Leeds, situated to the west of the city. The area sits within the broader network of communities that make up outer west Leeds, where residential streets give way to more open ground as the urban fabric begins to thin towards the surrounding moorland edges.
The Local Area
Upper Moor Side neighbours other settled parts of west Leeds, and its position on higher ground gives it a distinctly edgeland character compared to the denser inner suburbs closer to the city centre. Streets of houses spread across the area, and like many neighbourhoods in this part of Leeds, it has a quiet, largely residential feel shaped by its elevated position.
Getting Around
Upper Moor Side is accessible from the wider Leeds road network that connects the western suburbs. Visitors and residents travelling into Leeds city centre can make use of local bus routes that run through the surrounding area, linking Upper Moor Side to the broader transport connections the city has to offer.
