Join historian Robert Dyson for this guided walk around the Bank on the North Side of the River Aire.

The walk will take you across the River Aire from  the Royal Armouries to discover the hidden treasures of the mills, Waterways, churches, railways ,the links with Quarry Hill Flats and plenty more! You will discover what lies behind the over-complicated road system!
The walk will start and finish at the front steps of The Leeds Minster. From here you can easily reach your cars or major public transport arteries – or indeed, restaurants, bars or pubs for further refreshments and socialising.
