Leeds city secrets

Leeds City Secrets

 

Leeds is laced with alleys, ginnels and narrow passageways between houses. This traditional criss-cross feature harks to a darker side to the city, and its creepy bygone days... 

A guided walk with Ken Goor, is to be chilled to the bone with tales of witches being skinned and having their tongues pickled, or bodysnatchers, or villains being flogged for pinching the candlesticks from a Briggate pub. Tel 0113 2526807

On a lighter note, golf's oldest professional tournament, the Leeds Cup, began here. Here's your chance to make a break for the fairways and tee off at a number of courses around the city.
