Leeds Civic Trust

Join local historian Clive Cowell for a walk around Allerton Bywater, discovering old routes and re-connecting with the rich heritage of the area.

This walk will trace the long history of coal mining in the area and its human cost but you will discover a lot more about Allerton Bywater, not least Samuel Valentine's Food Hall where you can enjoy the very best of local produce. The walk will include a visit to the Victorian church of St Mary the Less.
